MAC Midwest Aikido Center


   
MAC Instructors
The Midwest Aikido Center is open seven days a week and is staffed by thirteen regular instructors; two of whom are USAF / Aikikai Shidoin and four of whom are USAF / Aikikai Fukushidoin. All instructors give freely of their time and are long-time students of Akira Tohei, Shihan. As well, the MAC hosts several significant Shihan taught seminars throughout the year and most of our instructors travel the world so that they may attend other important training opportunities. See the Daily Training Schedule and MAC Seminar link for information about future events.
