Spring Aikido Club

Specialties

We provide Aikido lessons and practice sessions. We hold two classes a week during which students are taught our values and principles, we subsequently provide a practice session for students to practice what they’ve learned, with support from a higher grade or teacher.

History

Established in 2006.

Denis Burke Sensei, our Chief Instructor, is an Aikido Teacher with over 30 years of teaching experience. He founded ‘Isshinkai’ in 2000 after 21 years in the Ki Federation. The Headquarters Dojo is in Fyfield, Andover, where our annual summer school is held.

The Spring Aikido club was founded in London at the end of 2006, by Denis Burke Sensei. Darius Norell was a founding member of the club and Emile Swain joined the club in 2007 with several years of practice behind him. Both have trained and practiced under Denis Burke Sensei since that time.
