Our beloved hombu dojo..the Shingikan is being slated for closure and demolition.

Linked here is the petition to save it. Please take the time to sign it and help try to save this bastion to martial training.

Located on the grounds of Kishiwada castle, it was rebuilt in 1962 and been a public dojo for the community.

We are sad to announce that one of our deshi has passed into the infinite.

Malik Carlvin had been a deshi with us for only a couple of years. He was always well liked and eager to learn when he was in class.

His presence will be missed and we wish his family our sincerest condolences during this difficult time.

Due to an all day aikido event at the JCC both regular and intro class will be held at the old location; 1016 w belmont ave.
Class times are the same: 10am-12 regular class; 11am-12pm intro class

Introduction to Japanese Swordsmanship

Learn the basics of traditional Japanese Swordsmanship.

This is an 8 week program designed to teach you the basic skills needed to use a Japanese sword.

You will learn proper etiquette, how to handle a katana, drawing, cutting, movement, etc.

We provide everything you need for the course. Just wear clothing you can move around in and don't mind getting sweaty.
Learn at your own pace. This is an ongoing program, so come every week or come in as you can, picking up where you left off.

Class is held every Saturday 11am-12pm at the Japanese Culture Center @ 2940 N. Lincoln Ave, Chicago - 2nd floor.
