Eugene Aikikai

Eugene Aikikai Dojo offering instruction in Aikido, Iaido and Zazen. Eugene Aikikai offers classes for beginning through advanced students. Training at our dojo is demanding.

If you are interested in learning more about our practice please come visit us and watch a class. To view the class schedule please visit: http://eugeneaikikai.com/schedule_frames.html

Classes in Aikido and Iaido are offered in a spacious and safe environment. The mat is specially constructed of a wood-sprung base with foam cushioning and a canvas cover. Everyone gives 100% in trying to learn Ai

kido. But everyone trains to their own ability - and with their own body. We have old, young, strong and weak students. Whatever your situation, you can probably practice Aikido. In Aikido we train within our own limits. And because there is no competition, our only obstacle is ourselves. Our chief instructor at Eugene Aikikai is Stephen Thoms, Sensei. Eugene Aikikai, its instructor and students, are members of Birankai North America, formerly USAF Western Region. Founded by T.K. Chiba, Shihan, (8th Dan). Eugene Aikikai is sponsored by Mike Flynn, Sensei, 6th Dan, Shihan. Mike Flynn Sensei, formerly the chief instructor of Alameda Aikikai, is now the chief instructor of Thistle Aikikai in Scotland.

It’s been eleven years since Chiba Sensei’s passing. Through the course of his life, Sensei, in many ways, became a mountain and many extended themselves in the dangerous pursuit of reaching toward his summit.

This year, I am now older than he was when he passed and have come to believe that summit is still obscured. A place still emerging through the work of the generations who were forged through him, and the ones who now carry his būdo - though many have never touched his fire.

We remember and honor Sensei each time we step on the mat. And on days like today, we remember him in community. The base of his mountain he left for us to protect so that generations forth coming will have a place to begin in their pursuit of they way.
