Aikido Evolving from the combat arts of the Samurai, Aikido ("The Way of Harmony") was founded by Morihei Ueshiba. It is a non-aggressive art that emphasizes redirecting an attacker's energy to achieve reconciliation rather than meeting force with force.
Gozo Shioda A standout student of the founder, Gozo Shioda established Yoshinkan Aikido. Known for its rigorous structure and dynamic precision, this practical style is famous for being the mandatory martial art of the Tokyo Riot Police.
The Seikeikan Dojo Founded in 1956 by Masatoshi Umetsu as a Judo club, Seikeikan is Burlington’s oldest martial arts institution. Meaning "a place for honing your character," the dojo transitioned to a dedicated center for Yoshinkan Aikido in 1995 continuing a decades-long tradition of self-improvement.
