UK United Kingdom

Aikido Yuishinkai UK brought together many groups that had at one time of another been students of Maruyama Sensei through the Ki Society. The largest of the two were the Isshinkai (headed by Dennis Burke) and the Banyu Hatten (headed by Geoff Flather) together with the Aikido for Daily Life group run by the Cooke brothers and then the Takagashirakai (originally Banyu Hatten members) that grew large enough (5 dojo) to affiliate directly.

The UK group is unique in that there is no chief instructor and the different organisation take turns hosting Maruyama Sensei which has advantages and disadvantages.
