Aikido is a modern Japanese martial art. And a friendly social group. Aikido is a martial art that emphasizes using your center and balance to overcome an opponent; not strength. Aikido uses an opponent's attack against them. Aikido is ideal for people of all ages, genders, and body types for this very reason.
Aikido strives to teach us not to fight or struggle, but to "harmonize" with an attack. Aikido of Louisville was founded in 1981 and is a member of the Aikido Schools of Ueshiba (ASU) under Mitsugi Saotome Sensei. We are dedicated to training and instructing Aikido in a professional, friendly and safe environment.

Ueshiba Morihei O-Sensei founded Aikido from his training in Daito-ryu Aiki-jujutsu, Tenjin Shin'yo-ryu, Yagyu Shingan-ryu, Kenjitsu and Judo and techniques involving spear (yari) and staff (jo). Ueshiba envisioned Aikido not only as the synthesis of his martial training, but also an expression of his personal philosophy of universal peace and reconciliation.
