Seidokan Aikido World Headquarters
Established 1970 by Roderick Kobayashi
The Aikido Institute of America (AIA) was established in 1970 by the late Roderick Kobayashi as the world headquarters for Seidokan Aikido.
Aikido
is a defensive art emphasizing balance, grace and harmony. Aikido is different
from most martial arts in that Aikido uses the energy of the attacker
to defend one's self 
from
harm. And as the worldwide headquarters for Seidokan
Aikido, the Aikido Institute of America is uniquely qualified to provide
the most rounded Aikido training possible. The curriculum of the Aikido
Institute of America is geared towards both teaching Aikido to beginners
and towards developing Aikido instructors.
Aikido Classes for all levels for adults and children are held daily. Please do not hesitate to visit if you are in the area. Guests are always welcome in our dojo to ask questions or simply to watch us practice!
We are located across the street from the Eagle Rock Plaza in Los Angeles. We are on the border of Glendale and near Pasadena and are conveniently located at the intersection of the 2 and 134 freeways. Click here for a map or for detailed driving directions.
