Instructors

Instructors at Rock Water Aikikai are dedicated to fostering exceptional Aikido students, teachers and leaders in general.  The founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba (known as O-Sensei) said: “A warrior’s mission is to foster the success of others.”   We take that to heart and work hard to help our students become successful human beings who are positive contributing members of society.

For those students who have the heart and ambition to become leaders not only in their dojo, but in their community, we have an Instructor Training Program (ITP).   Students learn how to teach with compassion, wisdom and strength.  And in so doing start the lifelong process of leading though their example!
