Thank you to all who attended and made the ASA Launch
Seminar a resounding success. To read more....
ASA was officially launched in the presence of the SA Sports Ministry and Japanese Consul.
The ceremony was overseen by Fujimoto Shihan, emphasizing the support from the Aikido Headquarters in Tokyo
for the establishment of a new era for Aikido and representative national
SA Aikido organisation – the first ever under the Technical Directorship of a Japanese Shihan from Hombu Dojo.
The Sports Ministry confirmed the important roll of Aikido in the South African context, and committed its support
for ASA in developing Aikido in our communities across the country. Other Aikido organizations and attempts
in South Africa have thus far been insignificant and limited to a small cross section of South African society.

Consul of Japan. To read more...
The Consul of Japan, Mr Kenji Miyata expressed the importance of a national Aikido organisation that remains
in touch with the authentic roots of Aikido through its relationship with a Japanese Shihan,
who was apart from others also a direct student of the founder of Aikido (Morihei Ueshiba)
and his son Kisshomaru Ueshiba.
ASA has established itself as the national Aikido organisation with close ties to the Japanese Embassy
and Consul to South Arica. This established a sound platform for future cooperation between Aikido South Africa and the Japanese Embassy.
