Sugano Shihan, who dedicated his life to preserving the essence of Aikido.

Now, onto the exciting event at Hornsby Aiki Kai Dojo! Aikido enthusiasts, both seasoned practitioners and beginners, are invited to join us for an unforgettable day of training and camaraderie. This event is perfect for those who want to experience the art of Aikido in its purest form.

At Hornsby Aiki Kai Dojo, we pride ourselves on being part of the Aiki Kai Australia community, which is deeply rooted in the traditional teachings of Aikido. We believe in following the trunk of the tree, as passed down to us by our esteemed founder, Sugano Shihan.

Unlike some other Aikido schools, we prioritise the study and application of O Sensei's teachings without the distractions of competitions. Our focus is on the mutual application of techniques with fellow practitioners, both one-on-one and in group settings. This approach allows us to develop a solid understanding of individual and group dynamics, a crucial aspect of Aikido.

What sets us apart is our recognition from the World Aikido Headquarters in Japan. This prestigious recognition grants us the authority to award black belt grades, which are internationally respected and acknowledged. Each of our students who achieves the level of black belt receives a personal certificate from the Hombu Dojo and has their grade details registered there.

To guide you on your journey towards mastery, Hornsby Aiki Kai Dojo boasts a remarkable roster of highly graded instructors. All our branches across the country have instructors with a minimum rank of 6th Dan, showcasing their immense expertise. These dedicated individuals have dedicated over 30 years of their lives to honing their Aikido skills under the tutelage of Sugano Shihan.

So mark your calendars and join us at Hornsby Aiki Kai Dojo for a day filled with passionate Aikido training led by our exceptional instructors. Whether you're a beginner eager to explore the art or an experienced practitioner seeking to deepen your understanding, this event promises to be an enriching experience. Don't miss out on this opportunity to immerse yourself in the timeless traditions of Aikido!
