Seminars

Aikido Shobukan Dojo is a premier dojo for Aikido keiko in North America, and hosts seminars throughout the year to offer aikido practitioners (“aikidoka”) opportunities for extended and more intensive training with senior Aikido Schools of Ueshiba (“ASU”) instructors. On occasions we will host visitors and special instructors for seminars to augment training programs. All our seminars are open to all aikidoka regardless of affiliation. Some seminars and events have special sites of their own, where registration is handled separately.
