July Seminar!!

Get ready for our 3rd AAF Seminar of Unification!!!! Next weekend in Longwood Florida. All members and future members are welcome to this great Aikido Seminar with Michael Moreno Shihan.

The American Aikikai Federation would like to inform all of its participants and congratulate Shihan Michael Moreno for receiving his 7th Dan certificate this Friday May 26th of 2017 in Tokyo, Japan.

The certificate was given by Sandai Doshu Moriteru Ueshiba in his house in a private ceremony. Below, you can see the official pictures taken at the ceremony.

We also like to thank students of Shihan Michael Moreno from Australia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico and United States of America for traveling to Japan and being part of this special moment with Shihan Michael Moreno.

Congratulations Shihan Michael Moreno, from all the students of the American Aikikai Federation.

We will be posting and updating the AAF website as well as our pages soon with new events for 2017

With much pain in my heart I want to inform you of the death of a friend and Aikidoka, Carlos Orta of Miami, FL.
He held the rank of Shodan and was a faithful member of the AAF.
"Rest in Peace"

Interesting read. Especially, in regards to Kisshomaru Ueshiba's efforts to pass down true Aikido

What does this mean? “Aikido: Property of the Ueshiba Family,” by Stanley Pranin First of all, I think it would be safe to say that Morihei Ueshiba’s statements imply that it was his intention that aikido continue to develop according to his vision. It further implies that he trusted his son Kisshomaru – aikido’s Second Doshu – to carry on in his stead. By extension, the Aikikai…

We would like to thank everyone for attending the Sensei Moreno seminar last weekend. We had a fantastic turn out and gained much knowledge for our Aikido practice.
We look forward to see everyone again soon in June for our first Unification Gathering.

Special Instructor class tomorrow night with Moreno Sensei at Sand Drift Aikido, Cocoa Beach FL 6:30 PM.
