Aikikai, Martial arts organization in Tokyo, Japan

The Aikikai Foundation operates from the Hombu Dojo in Tokyo, directing the practice and development of aikido techniques worldwide through certified instructors.

Morihei Ueshiba established the Aikikai Foundation on April 30, 1940, after decades of studying various martial arts including Daito-ryu Aiki-jujutsu.

The organization maintains traditional Japanese training methods, emphasizing the connection between physical practice and mental development through structured class protocols.

Students at Aikikai learn defensive techniques through a systematic curriculum that includes throws, joint locks, and movement principles in daily training sessions.

The Aikikai preserves direct lineage to founder Morihei Ueshiba through successive generations of his family, who continue to lead the organization.
