Aikido

 

Method founded by the great master Morihei Ueshiba 

 

1931- First Dojo called KOBUKAN, also known as the HELL DOJO

 

1940 – Founding of the KOBUKAI association followed almost after by the pacific war and the interruption of large-scale public martial arts intensive practice in Japan

 

1942 – First appearance of the name Aïkido

 

1948 – Replacement of KOBUKAI by AÏKIKAÏ under the leadership of Kisshomaru Ueshiba, the founder’s son, and the present Doshu Moriteru Ueshiba, the founder’s grandson.

 

The main derived schools: The diversity of current Aïkido methods comes from the fact that Morihei Ueshiba’s disciples and successors had perceived the message of the founder in different ways. They have therefore ended up elaborating their personal schemes of practice and the teachings of O-Sensei had as well evolved with time, which lead to each generation of disciples having a different perspective. Today, every Aïkido master, head of a school, defends the originality of their method: realism, effectiveness, energetic quest, etc… Affirmation of personalities with the finality of one and the same path, a normal evolution of practice and even intended by it.

 

Aïkido practiced by the disciples of the first class of O-Sensei, in the framework of groups and own associations.
