Fantastic experience: I'm a New Zealander currently living in Tokyo and practicing Aikido here. I really look forward to my annual visit back home and joining in with Sensei Dunken's classes. The Institute of Aikido Auckland is a great place to practice and learn with an excellent group of friendly people.
Fantastic experience: This dojo is the real deal. I went to a seminar here and I was very impressed by Dunken Francis sensei and his friendly crew. You can go here for budo or you can go here for fun safe self defense, which is how aikido should be. You won't get power tripping or wankery here, just incredibly good aikido!
