Aikido Institute of San Francisco, founded in June 1999 by Gloria E. Nomura, is dedicated to teaching and developing Aikido, a non-violent martial art rooted in harmony and spiritual cultivation. The dojo is affiliated with Birankai International and offers a curriculum that includes Aikido, Iaido, and classical Japanese weapons training, fostering both physical and mental well-being among its students.

Under the guidance of experienced instructors, including Nomura Sensei, who is the first woman promoted to Shihan in North America and Europe, the institute emphasizes respect, discipline, and the application of Aikido principles to daily life. The training environment promotes cooperation, non-competition, and the development of strong body movements, enriching the practice for both adults and children.
