Shin-Budo Kai annual aikido seminar in Albuquerque.
October 23, 24, and 25.
All aikidoka, regardless of style or skill level, are welcome to attend
Welcome
Our traditional dojo is guided by the ideals of budo and the spirit and teachings of Aikido's founder, Morihei Ueshiba, as passed on to us by Shizuo Imaizumi, founder of Shin-Budo Ki.
What is aikido?
Aikido is a modern martial art that aims to minimize injury or harm to an aggressor by ending any conflict as quickly and humanely as possible. Its characteristic blending techniques use the attacker’s energy to gain control of the situation and then to throw or pin the attacker.
Why train with us?
We are a diverse group of aikidoka (aikido practitioners) that appreciates the camaraderie instilled by energetic, cooperative practice. Safety and respect for others on the mat are among our highest priorities.
O’ Sensei taught that aikido training should always be conducted in a pleasant and joyful atmosphere. At Albuquerque Shin-Budo Kai, we try to embody this approach: we are a traditional dojo, but you will always hear laughter and see smiles during our classes.
We sincerely hope that you can feel this joy in training as well.
