Tomiki Aikido of the Americas

For your consideration...

Tanto Junanahon Finals from the 2019 WSAF World Championships in San Diego, California Red: Keith McLean / Pamela Dempsey (It is unusual to see a male/female pa...ir, especially with a female as uke.) White: Joe Adams/ Tomoki lshimatsu Competition is not compulsory but it is encouraged within Shodokan-ryu Aikido. Many people worldwide train in the system but don’t compete. Equal emphasis is put on both kata and randori training.

CONGRATULATIONS Andy MacNeill & Chioko Sato MacNeill for passing their shodan/1st degree black belt test for Tomiki Aikido! Couldn't be more proud of these two ...for all their hard work and dedication to not only their own fitness but also for everyone they help in our community. Two of the greatest people I've ever met! Great job and keep up the hard work!! See more

Great to see this comparison. TCC and Aikido share a lot in common. See if you can picture corresponding motions from the tandoku undo and kihon waza in Tomiki Aikido.
