“Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment”

- Buddha

Jikishinkan ("Direct Mind") Aikido dojo is a non profit organization devoted to the teaching and practice of Aikido, a powerful yet compassionate martial art and spiritual discipline where control is achieved through blending with, rather than confronting the energy of the attack. Our practice includes both adult classes and a comprehensive youth program for ages 6 - 13. Founded by Sensei Joseph Jarman in the late 80s, the dojo currently operates under the direction of Stewart Johnson Sensei, a long-time student of Sensei Jarman and holder of Yondan (fourth degree black belt) in Aikido.

We are part of the Aikido World Alliance, a national Aikido organization founded by Andrew Sato Sensei.
