Announcing the Aikido Shinryukan 56th International Gasshuku. Hosted by Nobuo Takase Shihan with guest instructors Horii Etsuji Shihan and Miyuki Kumazawa Shihan. Friday 6 March to Sunday 8 March 2026. Registration and details are here.
Aikido is a non-aggressive, non-competitive Japanese martial art that promotes self-confidence, balance, coordination, and fitness in a friendly, enjoyable environment. It is suitable for people of all ages, sizes, and fitness levels, and can be practiced as both a form of exercise and self-defense. Aikido does not require physical strength or aggression, making it ideal for children too, and it has been practiced in New Zealand for the past 55 years under Shihan Nobuo Takase, 8th Degree Black Belt, who teaches at Ramarama together with other world-class instructors.
