Yoshinkan Aikido International Senshusei Course

International Senshusei Course



The Senshusei Course is a year long intensive aikido course for those who really want to dedicate themselves to Yoshinkan Aikido. The course is the only one of it's kind in the world having been originally developed in the early 1960's to train the Tokyo Metropolitan Riot Police in Yoshinkan Aikido as a traditional budo form. It continues to this day, with a small but elite group of men and women having had the distinction of graduating from the Senshusei course.*

I know! Same here, always loved the concept of doing it, but it's a pretty serious commitment. These guys are dedicated to say the least.

Thanks for dropping by!
