Welcome! We would like to extend a special invitation to Aikidoists of all skill levels to train with us in a three day seminar March 23-25 2012 hosted by Aikido of Reno. We will focus on the teaching of Saito Sensei. We have invited Saito Sensei’s son, Hitohiro Sensei, to lead the seminar to share his unique understanding of his father’s aikido.

Hitohiro Sensei has the unique perspective of spending his youth with his father training together at the Iwama dojo with O’Sensei. Hitohiro Sensei has spent his life in “shuren”, serious practice and training of Aikido, and will share his experience and understanding of aikido technique from his years with O’Sensei and his father.

Aikido of Reno is please to host Hitohiro Sensei and to honor the memory of his father in 2012, the year of the 10th anniversary of his passing. Hitohiro’s father Saito Morihiro, Shihan, was the Chief Instructor of the Iwama dojo and Keeper of the Aiki Shrine. We hope you will join us as we gather to train and to honor, in harmony.
