Summary
A teacher’s guide for instructing beginners of Aikido–this book appeals to the new beginner and experienced student alike. Nippon Kan was established in 1980 as a center for Denver residents to experience Japanese culture. The center has since served more than 6,000 students with its variety of classes, but its core is still Aikido. Thousands of students have benefited from Gaku Homma’s form of dynamic Aikido.
