Welcome to Seminole Aikikai

Aikido is a modern martial art founded by Morihei Ueshiba. After mastering a number of traditional Japanese martial arts systems such as enjutsu, jojutsu, sojutsu, and ju-jitsu and actively engaged in profound spiritual training, he created an art where the practicioner could arrive to balance, peace, and harmony. A number of elements found in this martial art trace far back to XIVth century Japanese Samurai arts. This state can be maintained both with the outside world and within out selves. It is a way of continual learning and growth. It is not a static art, but places great emphasis on motion and the dynamics of movement. Because it is so effective, it is taught to numerous police forces and some Special forces units around the globe. For this reason and so that its effectiveness is not diminished, Aikido is noncompetitive. This club's focus is Aikido practice the way it was meant to be. We stay as close to the source as possible. While Aikido is increasingly popular, Samurai principles are still visible and at work.
