Alameda Aikikai is a 501(c)3 non profit organization that wants to change the world through the study of Aikido. Our mission is to foster the harmony of the entire individual (mind, body, and emotions) through the disciplines of Aikido, zen, weapons, and Iaido. These traditional Japanese arts are a "Do" (or "Tao" in Chinese), a Way, through which one strives to reveal the true self. By bringing this true self forward, one is transformed, and so is the world.

We provide a sanctuary in Alameda where individuals from all backgrounds may develop themselves through training in the above arts. We promote understanding of these traditional Japanese arts, as well as other Japanese cultural activities.

Alameda Aikikai is a member of Birankai North America, an organization founded by T.K. Chiba Shihan to promote quality instruction and practice of aikido. Birankai is recognized by Hombu Dojo in Japan. Alameda Aikikai does not discriminate on the basis of age, race, gender, religion, ethnicity, sexual preference, or national origin.
