In addition to attending seminars, one of the many wonderful things about Aikido is be able to visit other dojos and train and learn with different groups of people. Many of our members visit Japan and stop in at Aikido Kyoto to train with our (Portland Aikikai) founders, Yoko Okamoto Sensei and Chris Mulligan Sensei. My daughter Chloe is next to Mulligan Sensei. (Apparently, not traveling with her Hakama😄)
