📜 NEWS: AKI PA Update by Gene Buryakovsky

“I have gotten in the best shape I’ve been in over ten years, and it feels great. I love Aikido and want to train seriously more than ever”

It is really great to have Matt Sensei back in PA and teaching classes again! With our current training I have gotten in the best shape I’ve been in over ten years, and it feels great. I love Aikido and want to train seriously more than ever thanks to Matt Sensei’s guidance.

We are also looking forward to finding a permanent dojo home very soon. The prospect of having various Aikido teachers visit AKI PA from all parts of the world is a very exciting one. This is why we will work very hard to establish the best AKI PA dojo we possibly can. We will focus on building a good student base and will put special emphasis on growing a solid kids class.

When I started training Aikido over 15 years ago, I never imagined that 15 years later I could show up at the dojo and the art would be just as fresh and exciting to me as it was when I first started. Now I see that with a good teacher leading the dojo the art and practice of Aikido will never get old.

I am looking forward to some amazing training in PA for years to come!
