The Northcoast School of Aikido was founded by John Thomas Read upon his return from Japan in 1977.   Read Sensei is widely recognized for his ability to teach the full variety of Aikido technique, in a concise, clear, and powerful way. Both at Northcoast Aikido and in seminars throughout the country, Read Sensei has spent the past quarter century teaching  both practical technique and a complete philosophical basis for power through non-resistance.  Read Sensei has also developed and continues to teach Aikibojitsu -- the Art of the Staff

Training at Northcoast Aikido offers rich opportunities for self-development.  Teaching responsibilities are shared by Read Sensei and several of his senior students.  Visitors are welcome to our dojo, and beginning classes are ongoing.  Please call or email us if you are interested in beginning your training in Aikido.
