| The Martial Art of Peace | |
| THE FOUNDER OF AIKIDO | |
|
Developed from an ancient martial art, Aikido came into being through the efforts of Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969), the founder of Aikido. He is recognised as one of history’s greatest martial artists. He developed an art that joins with the force of an attack and utilises throws and locks. Morihei Ueshiba Sensei synthesized a variety of martial arts techniques he had learned from studying with masters of ‘jujitsu’ (unarmed combat), ‘kenjutsu’ (kendo) and ‘sojutsu’ (spear fighting). | |
|
"The Art of Peace begins with you. Work on yourself and your appointed task in the Art of Peace. Everyone has a spirit that can be refined, a body that can be trained in some manner, a suitable path to follow. You are here for no other purpose than to realise your inner divinity and manifest your innate enlightenment. Foster peace in your own life then apply the art to all that you encounter." | |

He has dedicated his life to communicating the benefits of ‘positive mind’ through Aikido. He has inspired many thousands of people throughout the world over many years. | |
| Aikido Yuishinkai was founded by Maruyama Sensei to promote universal values and principles of peace throughout the world. Students from all styles of aikido train with us as we are non-partisan in our approach. Friendship with other dojos is encouraged in keeping with the harmonious spirit of Aikido.
