about aikibudo
Meaning "The way of harmony through martial practice", aikibudo is a defensive martial art rooted in the Japanese warrior tradition.
Master Alain FLOQUET, 8th Dan, is the founder of aikibudo. He was introduced to the martial arts by Master Minoru MOCHIZUKI, a famous budôka, and went on to develop aikibudo.
Lively and evolving, accessible to all, aikibudo is a discipline adapted to the modern world. It is essentially based on empty-hand defense techniques, against all types of seizures or strikes, armed or unarmed. These techniques are based on dodging and channelling the opponent's force, by means of imbalances, projections and/or immobilizations. Mutual learning, based on flexible practice, enables everyone to progress at their own pace.
Aikibudo is taught in conjunction with Tenshin Shoden Katori Shinto Ryû, one of Japan's oldest weapons schools and recognized as an important intangible heritage by the Japanese Ministry of Culture.
Practice is open to all, aged 12 and over.
