Dear friends,

Does anyone have information about THOMAS MAKIYAMA Sensei and his independent Keijutsukai Aikido organization?
The only information I found was in Stanley Pranin's Encyclopedia of Aikido. I did not find any website on him. He was the writer of one of the first books on Aikido outside of Japan. He seems to have studied with Shioda Gozo Sensei.
Any information would be welcome
Thank you

Hi KAMI! Have you read the book "Keijutsukai Aikido" Before I began Aikido I thought it would be good to purchase a book about it to se what it was. For some reason it turned out to be that book. In it you can get his background and the keijutsukai background too. I can't really remember all the facts now but give me a day and I will come back to you!
