Welcome to the Shin Gi Tai Aikido Society |
|
This is the home of Shingitai Aikido on the web. The place where as a student, teacher or visitor you will be able to find out up to date information about the Shingitai Aikido Society and Aikido in general. The Shingitai Aikido Society promotes aikido as a dynamic, living art as practiced by its founder Osensei (Morei Ueshiba). Osensei was not stifled by insular and sometimes pseudo traditional constraints of his time and consequently his Aikido changed and developed throughout his lifetime. The Shingitai Aikido Society (under the guidence of Shihan Gwynne Jones 8th Dan) in the same way, nurtures an ever evolving Aikido which warmly welcomes into its fold many practitioners of differing styles, encouraging reciprical development so that our Aikido can continue to be enriched as the living, dynamic art practiced by its founder Osensei.
New to Aikido? If you are new to aikido then please try an aikido class with one of our member clubs - see clubs and dojos - or contact us for more info. our classes have a friendly, relaxed atmosphere and visitors and beginners alike are always taken care of. Please browse for more information as these pages contain news, information and reports related to the art of Shin Gi Tai Aikido - so happy browsing and hopefully we will see you soon!! |

Mind, Body and Spirit Aikido Seminar Wales April 25th 2009 |
Sixty eight Aikidoka from 14 various groups or organisations attended the recent course held in Wales, which was hosted by Treorchy Uk Shin-Gi-Tai Dojo.
All six instructors showed a variety of Aikido at its very best and all who attended were left to ponder the variation and different styles taught on the day.
The aim of the seminar was to share knowledge with other groups and learn from each other. Judging from the feedback received, this was certainly achieved as everyone showed great spirit and determination on the day and went away feeling exhilarated and satisfied.
At the end of the seminar Shihan Williams presented all instructors with T- shirts and mugs commemorating the event.
Sensei Pietro Paterna returned the compliment and presented all instructors with an embroidered cloth for their Dojo's.
As this was a success I am sure there will be more Mind, Body and Spirit Aikido Seminars in the future.
May I take this oportunity to thank all instructors who gave up their free time to teach at this event, the members of Treorchy UK Shin-Gi-Tai Dojo and family members who helped make this a success.
