Did you know that Moriteru Ueshiba, the current Doshu (leader of the way) of Aikido and grandson of the Soke (founder) O Sensei Morihei Ueshiba, is making a rare trip to the United States in September of this year? Typically, the Doshu only visits one country a year and our parent organization the California Aikido Association is fortunate enough to host the Doshu this year. This promises to be a lovely chance to train with the larger family of North American Aikidoka: all cl...asses taught by the Doshu. Please consider attending.

For your consideration, from the page of Jamie Zimron Sensei, a request for donations for the Peace Camp Initiative.
