Aiki Kai Australia is the mainstream Aikido organisation in Australia, with direct links with Hombu in Japan, a presence in all capital cities and most major centres across Australia. Founded in 1965 by Seichi Sugano, a student of O'Sensei, Aiki Kai Australia is a non-profit organisation focused upon making Aikido available for new students and continuing students in Canberra. Under the guidance of Hanan Janiv Shihan, 7th Dan, we welcome new students to come and watch a class and consider experiencing the unique aspects of this art.
