ISLAND AIKIDO
& KENJUTSU

1+new+aikido+logo+2019_edited_edited.jpg

Teaching nonviolence on Bainbridge for more than 25 years

Welcome to Island Aikido & Kenjutsu, located on beautiful Bainbridge Island, Washington, where we offer adult and youth instruction in Aikido, Kenjutsu, Aiki-Ken, and Aiki-Jo.

We celebrate diversity and welcome all practitioners who bring openness and respect to their practice.

Aikido was developed by O-Sensei Morihei Ueshiba (1883–1969). O-Sensei practiced many martial arts in his lifetime before he founded the art we call Aikido.

 

He believed that Aikido was a way to resolve the inner conflict we all face and thus bring peace to an often-violent world. 

The word Aikido is comprised of three syllables:

Ai (to join, to harmonize, to connect, to merge, to love) 
Ki 
(universal creative energy) 
Do (the way or path) 

Aikido: To connect with the path of universal creative energy
