Seminars

Aikido Shobukan Dojo is a premier dojo for Aikido keiko in North America, and hosts seminars throughout the year to offer aikido practitioners (“aikidoka”) opportunities for extended and more intensive training with senior Aikido Schools of Ueshiba (“ASU”) instructors. On occasions we will host visitors and special instructors for seminars to augment training programs. All our seminars are open to all aikidoka regardless of affiliation. Some seminars and events have special sites of their own, where registration is handled separately.

Upcoming Events:

2024 Summer Camp will be July 3-7

Join Aikido Shobukan Dojo for our annual Summer Camp. This year it will start on Wednesday July 3rd and run through July 7th.

We’re excited to welcome back Saotome Sensei and Gleason Sensei as our lead instructors. They will be joined by other senior ASU Instructors including Stephane Le Derf from France to fill out 5 full days of training.

Classes will be held indoors and outdoors, with several weapons workshops intended just for yudansha and some open to all. This will be an exciting and memorable opportunity to train with these Shihan together. This event is limited to 60 participants and begins on 7/3 10am Wednesday morning.

Registration fee is $250. Register Here
