New York "Still Mind" Aiki Shuren Dojo is a affiliated with Iwama Takemusu Aikikai, a member of Aikikai World Headquarters in Japan. Our lineage meticulously preserves the founder's teaching methods and style as it comes through Morihiro Saito Sensei, one of his two top students with the rare honor to take over the founder's dojo. We are currently supervised by Mark Larson Sensei, who received the highest honors from Saito Sensei. By following the most advanced teachers, our dojo accesses Aikido training at the highest levels. Larson Sensei's dojo was given the name aiki-shuren, or austere training, by Morihiro Saito, and has bestowed upon his member dojos, such as ours, the same title.
