WELCOME TO BRISBANE AIKIKAI
- A traditional, friendly and non-competitive space -
Brisbane Aikikai is a non-profit organisation, which was founded in 1992. We are a traditional Aikido dojo and we welcome all beginners, new members and visitors from all other dojos.
Our training develops strength, flexibility, calm under pressure and mutual respect — within
a supportive and inclusive environment.
NEW TO AIKIDO?
Aikido is a non-competitive Japanese martial art developed by Morihei Ueshiba (O Sensei).
Rather than meeting force with force, Aikido blends with an attack and redirects energy
through throws, pins and balance control. Training helps to develop balance, timing, awareness and mind-body connection.
You don’t need experience, You don’t need to be flexible and you don’t need to wait for a new term. We offer a first class for beginners at no charge, beginner friendly instructors and you can start at any time in the year.
We also offer kids classes on Saturday mornings, which helps in developing confidence, co-ordination, focus, respect and emotional resilience.
DECADES OF EXPERIENCE
Our dojo includes multiple senior black belts with decades of combined teaching experience.
We are proudly affiliated with Aikido Shinryukan (New Zealand), under Chief Instructor
Nobuo Takase Shihan (8th Dan), with direct connection to Aikikai Hombu Dojo in Tokyo,
Japan. Students undertake internationally recognised gradings within the Aikikai system.
Our friendly instructors are here to guide you through your Aikikai practice with safety at professionalism. It takes many years of dedication to the art to reach the level of understanding that our instructors have achieved. We are here to guide you through every step of your journey and are happy to help with any questions that you may have.
