O Do Ryu Aikido

 

AIKIDO IS A DIALOGUE OF NATURAL MOVEMENT

AFTER MANY HAPPY YEARS OF TEACHING AND SUPPORTING THE SPIRIT OF TOMIKI AIKIDO WE HAVE COME TO THE DECISION THAT WE CAN NO LONGER OFFER CLASSES.

FOR NOSTALGIC REASONS THIS WEBSITE IS BEING MAINTAINED AS A HISTORIC JOURNAL OF THE MANY ENJOYABLE TIMES THAT WE ALL EXPERIENCED.

O Do Ryu Judo has been in existence since the early sixties.  Its founder members include John Wilkinson, he followed the teachings of Senta Yamada Sensei, head of Kikusui Kai.  The "YouTube" video shows the style of Judo in those early days.  Alex Macintosh assists Yamada Sensei in the clip.

The O Do Ryu Aikido school first opened in 1995 and regular classes ran for a few years at the old site with classes being taken by Adrian Tyndale.  He was originally a student at the O Do Ryu.  Adrian became a student of John Waite Shihan, where he was introduced to Senta Yamada Sensei.

The teachings of Professor Tomiki and latterly Yamada Sensei link Dr Kano's Judo and Ueshiba Sensei's Aikido and classes linking the two activities under the heading Judo Taiso are now being run at the new Centre in Malden Road, Worcester Park.
