The dojo offers a rigorous curriculum, including unique training with the wooden sword (bokken) and wooden staff (jo), ensuring students experience a comprehensive approach to Aikido. By fostering a welcoming community of aikidoka, Shin-Budo Kai supports practitioners of all backgrounds in their journey toward mastery of the art.
