    introduction
    About Aikido
    Discover the art of Aikido, a traditional Japanese martial art founded in 1925 by Master Morihei Ueshiba (O’Sensei). More than just a method of self-defense, Aikido is a path to harmonizing body, mind, and spirit. Rooted in the tactics of Samurai warriors, it embodies the principle of using an attacker’s energy against them, promoting balance and personal development rather than aggression. Learn more about Aikido's philosophy and practice by exploring our dedicated page.
    Vancouver Aikikai
    The Vancouver Aikikai is a non-profit volunteer organization. No-one makes any money from the club, and in fact, many of us put our own time and money into the organization because we are passionate about Aikido and the community.
    Vancouver Aikikai is affiliated with the Canadian Aikido Federation, and the British Columbia Aikido Federation.
