List of aikidoka
This is a list of famous and well-known aikido practitioners (aikidoka) sorted by area of primary residence.
In Japanese, the suffix ka (家?) may be added to the name of an activity to describe a practitioner, especially a serious or professional one. Aikido practitioners may thus be called aikidōka, analogous to karateka or judōka. In part because the ka suffix may suggest a certain (high) level of dedication, English-speakers sometimes use more generic terms like "aikidoist" or "aikido student" as well.[1]
For a list of direct students of Morihei Ueshiba please see his legacy.
