 | “If you are alive, then you have access to the secrets of the centuries, because the secret of the Universe lives in every human being”.The founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba, was born on December 14th, 1883, in a farm in Wakayama Prefecture, place known today as Tanabe. He was the only son of six children. He inherited the character of his father, whom was a very firm man with an interest in public business affaires, but also his mother’s interests for religion, poetry and the arts.

Kisshomaru Ueshiba | |
 | Kisshomaru Ueshiba was born in Ayabe, Kyoto Prefecture, on June 27, 1921 as the fourth child and third son of Morihei Ueshiba. Asked in an interview when he began training in martial arts, he responded, “a boy who lives near a temple will chant a sutra even if untaught”, same way I began my practice, when I was a boy, without even realizing it. By 1936 it had become my duty to be uke for my father in his demonstrations.
