About Perth - Leederville Aikido Aiki Kai

Perth - Leederville Aikido Aiki Kai is part of Aikido WA, an established Aiki Kai Aikido organisation teaching authentic, Japan-affiliated Aikido across the Perth metropolitan area. The Leederville dojo offers regular classes in a discipline known for its flowing, non-aggressive approach to martial arts, where students develop balance, awareness and control rather than relying on force.

The organisation traces its lineage to Seiichi Sugano, an 8th Dan instructor and direct student of Aikido's founder, giving members access to a genuine and respected tradition. Training is led by senior instructors with a strong local reputation, and the atmosphere is frequently described as gentle and focused, with plenty of good humour shared after class. Newcomers and experienced practitioners alike find the dojo welcoming.

Classes cater to beginners through to advanced students, with dedicated beginner resources and children's programs available. Early-morning and evening sessions through the week make it practical to fit training around work and study. For anyone curious about Aikido, getting started is often the hardest step, but members consistently describe walking through the door as the best decision they made. Visitor passes are available for those wanting to experience the practice first-hand.
