I started training in Aikido at the Genyokan back in 1994. It was the greatest experience I have…read moreever had. I can't believe any bad reviews of the Genyokan because I trained under Kushida Sensei, Mrs. Kushida Sensei and Akira Sensei for many years and they all taught me how to be a better human being and learn the basics of Aikido. Unfortunately there are people who come into Aikido thinking they will learn a martial art to go use it for bad intentions, Those people will weed themselves out of any quality Aikido Dojo no matter where they are in the World. The thing about Aikido is you have to learn and understand the history and how to use it to become a better person. It is the most aerobic activity I ever did and I played basketball most of my life and Aikido made me much more healthier than any other sport or training. Many of the bad reviews I believe are from people who were looking to learn how to damage and hurt others when they should have used the experience to make themselves better human beings from the inside out. If you are thinking of training in Aikido to learn skills to hurt others you WILL FAIL. The instructors at the Genyokan will see through you and your bad intentions and most likely try and change your attitude or they will encourage you to leave because this is not a Martial Art you learn just to hurt others. If you can't figure that out then it's on YOU. I trained in every level of classes at the Genyokan and loved every minute. I made life long friends and only stopped training due to my life becoming so busy with raising children and granchildren that I no longer had the time to do anything other than work and family. I have health issues that keep me from rejoining the Genyokan and train in Aikido again but I will never forget what I learned from the Kushida family and I will always recommend training there under Akira Sensei, no matter your age or size you can gain so much helpful life knowledge by training at the Genyokan and become a much healthier human being.

The other instructors are very stand offish and could care lesss if u are there. The white belt class doesnt start on time because Brent has a training class that seems to takes priority over ours. We had to wait 15 mins later to start and then got our time cut short for the higher belt classes that starts after us. This isnt the first time our class didnt start on time. The higher belts bring their kids with them. So now you have to deal with running, screaming, laughing kids while you are trying to learn the lesson. Its nothing but a babby sitting service! On the positive side... It is very clean and the building is very nice. I dont recomend this place at all.
