I felt compelled to write this review, not just for the sake of writing it. One of the best thing about this school is the balance. It’s like they have selected the best components from the tradition and modern world and then adapted them in their practice of aikido. There’s a balance between both components. For example No long and tedious formalities, but just enough that students stay in touch with the essence of aikido. Another example is the easy access to instructors unlike I have seen at other schools. After the class even the instructors clean the mats along with students, which is so rare to see. There are more dan level students here then any other school I have seen. It’s like they put you into fast track as you get to learn from different instructors everyday who have different styles. Plus they give you feedback right away. I learned more here in less than 3 weeks than I learned in 2 and half months at the other school. I think it’s the best aikido school in Cincinnati.
