The Aikido Shudokan is Australia's longest running Yoshinkan Aikido school, established in 1982 by Sensei Joe Thambu (now 6th dan). Aikido helps promote fitness, coordination, health, confidence, harmony and peace of mind. Ostensibly a fighting form, the Yoshinkan martial art is a practical form of self-defence that is non-violent yet effective & powerful. Classes for adults & children are held around Victoria in Thornbury, Oakleigh, & South Melbourne.
