AIKIDO DERBY was established in April 2006, but under the name of Mickleover Aikido Club, by Jason Hunt sensei. Back then, we were members of the Aikido Union England, with Mr Chris McDonald sensei (6th dan) as Senior Instructor and Mr Pat Stratford sensei (8th dan) as Director. Mickleover Aikido Club held classes at the Vicarage Road Pavillion, which was a fairly new building in Mickleover, on

a saturday morning, and a sunday evening. The club officially opened on saturday 29th April, 2006 by Mr McDonald, whom kindly demonstrated aikido to a large crowd of spectators There were junior and senior classes held on both days, with the saturday class eventually stopping, leaving the club with just the sunday evening classes running. In 2010 we decided to move to the Derby City Centre, which is where we are still based, and are still running the classes on sunday evenings
Instruction is by Jason Hunt sensei (2dan Aikikai), with assistance from fellow yudansha
We are an independantly run Amateur Martial Arts Association
