Aikido minor styles
Minor Styles
A number of organizations independent from the major styles of aikido have developed some of which are notable in their own right through their size or historical association. These "minor styles" are distinct from independant dojo or small dojo clusters.
* Shin'ei Taido (親英体道 Shin'ei Taidō) is a style closely related to aikido, founded in 1956 by Noriaki Inoue (井上 鑑昭 Inoue Noriaki, 1902–1994), a nephew and pre-war student Morihei Ueshiba.[6]
* Tendoryu Aikido (天道流合気道 Tendō-ryū Aikidō); founded by Kenji Shimizu (清水 健二 Shimizu Kenji, born 1940) in 1982. Originally founded the "Shimizu Dojo" in 1969, renamed it the Tendokan (天道館 Tendōkan) in 1975.
* Kokikai Aikido International; founded in 1986 by Shuji Maruyama (Maruyama Shuji, born 1940).
* Fugakukai International Association, founded in 1982, has roots in the Shodokan style, but without the competition element.
* Yoshokai; founded in 1991 by Takashi Kushida (串田 誉司 Kushida Takashi, born 1935), a senior instructor of Yoshinkan aikido.
* The Kokusai Aikido Kensukai Kobayashi Hirokazu Ha, or Kobayashi aikido , was founded by Hirokazu Kobayashi.
* Aikido Yuishinkai International ; founded in 1996 by Koretoshi Maruyama (born 1936).
