Looking for a male & female Aikido Sensei to establish a DOJO in Kuwait
 

Dear All,

I would like to start by giving an intro and then ask for what I have in mind..

I reside in Kuwait and I own my contracting business, im in love with Aikido since sometime and couldnt train due to lack of Dojos that can give a full time Aikido training.

I have decided the following:

Im willing to establish a Dojo provided I find a Sensei who is a holder of 4 Dan and above. Ofcourse he needs to relocate to Kuwait were I live and he will be heading the dojo and he will be a partner in it earning 40% of the profit along with a monthly salary.

I prefer someone affiliated to one of the known Dojo's, I want it to be perfect and internationally organized. I would like to help spread this beautifull art and way of life in Kuwait.

I will be needing a female sensei for we have here alot of females who prefer to learn from a female due to cultural reasons.

I would like to get feedback and if anyone is interested please mail me direct to waliano@live.com also any ideas or thoughts are welcome.

Regards

Tawfiq Wali

Salam,

You may be better off writing to Hombu and formally requesting for a Sensei.

You can invite a few sensei's over for regular seminars first. That way both you and the Sensei's can gauge compatibility before making such a leap of faith.

Dear Ahmad,

Thanks for your message, I tried writing to several Dojos but no reply so far thats why I tried on AikiWeb.

Maybe it needs a visit to Japan unless someone helps me in reaching one of them directly

Tawfiq,

Ahmad is correct. You should try to contact the head dojo for whichever organization you wish to engage with (Aikikai Hombu, Shodokan Hombu, etc.).

Depending upon which organization, most of these are in Japan.

Best,
