Training in Japan

Training in Ibaraki Shibu Dojo (Iwama Dojo)

It is now possible for Aikido students to stay in the Ibaraki Shibu Dojo and train as uchi deshi. The atmosphere of training in O-Sensei’s dojo is truly a great experience. Many of the instructors have trained extensively under the direct guidance of Ueshiba O-Sensei. See the information below, and go to the Ibaraki Shibu Dojo website for further instructions about staying and training at the dojo.
