Brisbane Aikikai

Brisbane Aikikai The Club was founded in 1992. It is affiliated with Aikido World Headquarters in Tokyo, Japan through Aikido Shinryukan NZ.

We are an open-spirited dojo with a welcoming attitude, more than 30 years experience and a wealth of senior instructors including two 6th-Dan, one 5th-Dan and four 4th-dan black belts. We practice a mixture of traditional hand-to-hand and weapons work. We are affiliated with Hombu Dojo Headquarters in Tokyo, Japan, through Nobuo Takase Shihan (8th Dan) and Aikido Shinryukan (NZ), so that all our gradings are internationally recognised. We are a strictly not-for profit community organisation, run by a team of enthusiastic volunteers. Everyone is welcome from absolute beginners to experienced aikidoka alike - both men and women. Families are welcome, but please note that kids normally need to be a minimum of 10 years of age and to be accompanied on the mat by an adult until the age of 14. Beginners are welcome to start in any class, but we especially recommend including Thursday evening classes, which focus on fundamentals. You first class is always free and we have a cheap introductory deal for you to try us out for a month. Costs are currently (from Oct 31st, 2023):

1. Annual membership (which includes third party liability insurance):

Standard membership: $110

A sad day for all of us who were fortunate to learn from Dave Brown Shihan over the years. He brought (or did his best to bring ?!) uncompromising reality and discipline to our practice, as well as good humour to the observation of our failings. Our best wishes to all who knew and learned so much from him, and to those grieving his passing. 🙏
