The Early Days:
Aikido Ki no Kenkyukai in Singapore was formalized in the latter half of
1980's with a logo coloured at its core to signify Japan as the country of
origin of our curriculum. This coloured logo became the badge worn on the
right sleeve by all our members.
During the same period, a poster with the same colour was designed. This is
now displayed at the home page of our website.
Our endearvour is to share the Ki and Ki-Aikido programmes formulated by
Master Koichi Tohei, founder of Ki no Kenkyukai HQ, Japan. This includes
his breathing exercise.
[An upgraded
version of Sensei Tohei's breathing methods can be found in the latest
edition of his book entitled, "Ki in Daily Life" just being
released.]
The New Millenium:
Our senior members have been groomed for the past one and a half decades
with the hope that they will eventually promote Ki and Ki-Aikido to
everyone.
Early this year, our management spearheaded by assistant chief instructor,
Sensei Alice Kow was entrusted with the possibilities for more training
halls (dojo). This resulted with another dojo at Changi Simei Community
Club. Hopefully this is just the beginning.
Website:
Explanations are often kept brief in class to ensure that ample time is
devoted to training on the numerous Ki and Ki-Aikido principles.
We hope that members will use discussion with senior members and
instructors to learn more about their practical lessons taught in the dojo.
