Aikido International Foundation (AIF)

Aikido International Foundation (AIF) If you have any questions about this part of our program, please contact us at our email address.

The mission of the AIF is to provide leadership, educational opportunities, economic support, public awareness, and organizational support to promote the principles of Aikido among all people who practice the way of Aikido. As part of our mission, we provide competitive travel/training scholarships to Aikido students and instructors who are seeking further training to improve themselves for the go

od of their Aikido communities. Though these have typically gone to under-served or very remote areas, anyone is welcome to contact us at [email protected] for more information and/or to request an application. As part of our travel scholarship program, we have also occasionally awarded scholarships to seminar instructors to go out to remote areas to provide instructor training that would help under-served areas develop. Lastly, we have helped with a variety of unique situations from awarding a dojo a small grant to purchase start-up mats to helping host free instructional training at large Aikido camps. If you have a unique situation that you think might fit within our nonprofit mission, don't hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected]!

Happy New Year everyone! Thank you for your generous support through the fundraisers at Kangeiko, the AAA National Instructor's Seminar and Chicago end of year party, North Shore Aikido/Josh Weiser's birthday fundraiser, Aikido of Northwest Kansas's Scholarship program, Jyushinkan Dojo's fundraiser seminar and Aikido of Northwest Kansas's fundraiser seminar, and other venues including direct donations! Your generosity has enabled:
A scholarship to Aikisur to allow Matsuda Sensei to travel and teach in Spain
A scholarship for Amy from Utah to attend summer camp at Shinshinkan Dojo
A scholarship for Morgan from Utah to attend an Aikido retreat at Lake Tahoe
A scholarship for Jon from Chicago to attend an AAI seminar in Belgium
Students from Aikido of Northwest Kansas to travel to Japan to train
Two seminars that both sought to raise funds for us and share Aikido in their areas.
Here's to a new year working together to support and spread Aikido! Thank you again for all you do!
