About the event

For the future development of Aikido, it's essential to nurture the next generation of leaders. With this goal in mind, Aikido Shimbokukai is  hosting a seminar featuring instruction by experienced instructors who may not be the top instructor at their dojo. This seminar will provide a unique opportunity for up-and-coming instructors to gain teaching experience outside of their own dojo, and for attendees to benefit from the diverse insights these instructors have to offer.

It is their intention to host a series of seminars like this in various locations, with the hope that the Aikido community will support this initiative for the future growth of our art.

The esteemed instructors for this event will be:

  • Crystal Aldrich Sensei, Yondan, Aikido New London County, United States Aikido Federation
  • Naomi Barshi Sensei, Nidan, Aikido of Madison, Aikido Schools of Ueshiba
  • Daniel Epstein Sensei, Nidan, Great Lakes Aikido, Aikido Shimbokukai
  • Lana Medvedeva Sensei, Shodan, Midwest Aikido Center, United States Aikido Federation

There are a variety of options for participation- - Participate live; in-person training at Great Lakes Aikido, 150 Fairway Drive, Suite 156, Vernon Hills, IL. - Participate virtually with your dojo mates from your dojo. For those who can gather and train together, please plan to attend the seminar from your dojo! Set up a computer, stream the event, and train! - Participate virtually on your own from your home, or any location of your choice.

Registration for the seminar is US$40 for in person participation and US$25 for virtual participation. For registration and further details, please visit the event website here
