In June, 2002 the Nihon Daito Ryu Aikibudo Daito Kai International Association was founded, having its dojo in Abashiri – Hokkaido. Created by Shigemitsu Kato, its purpose is to continue on, the development and diffusion of the Art learnt from Takeda Tokimune, Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu. The International Association is present in many countries other than Japan:
Today all the techniques of Aikijujutsu are being studied and practiced exactly as they were in the Feudal Era of Japan, when they were trained by the Aizu clan bushi. Every technique has been passed on and kept secret inside the Takeda family, until almost 10 years ago.
Having resently been on an intensive course with the Daito-Ryu under the direction of Certa Shihan Overseas (Director of the Foreign Development) for the Nihon Daito Ryu Aikibudo Daito Kai school. Sensei Mark has started a study group so he can pass on the techniques he has learnt. Hopefully this will lead onto various seminars around the world as well as in the Uk.
