About Kokikai Aikido

Kokikai Aikido founder Sensei Shuji Maruyama began his study of Aikido in 1955.

Aikido Kokikai Australia (AKA) was founded in 1989 by Shuji Ozeki under the founder and President of Aikido Kokikai International, Shuji Maruyama Sensei. Maruyama Sensei now lives and teaches at Kokikai headquarters in Nagoya, Japan. Maruyama Sensei comes to Australia to teach every one or two years.
