Nihon Goshin Aikido School.
Nicholas G. Licata, Sensei

We're a budo based aikido school in Orange County, NY. We teach aikido according to its martial arts roots in budo. Our aikido classes [AIKIDO CLASSES & FEES] are held in our Walden dojo located at Hoshin Black Belt Academy on Elm Street, in Walden, NY.

What is Nihon Goshin Aikido (NGA)? It is a single martial art developed in Japan from a mix of other martial arts. Nihon Goshin Aikido is a martial art which combines the principles of Aikido (circular motion) with jujitsu (joint manipulation) and karate (striking) techniques. Most closely related to Daito Ryu Aikijujitsu, Nihon Goshin Aikido was developed in Japan by Shodo Morita a student of Yoshiro Kitaro an instructor of Daito Ryu Aikijujitsu.

Nihon Goshin Aikido is a practical form of self defense brought to the United States by Shihan Richard Bowe, now head of the Nihon Goshin Aikido Association based in North Bergen New Jersey.

Nihon Goshin Aikido practitioners consider the artistic aspects of self defense but make the practical turn of martial art into martial science.

"We must realize that aikido is a martial art, not a performance art. Aikidoka often demonstrate with beautiful flowing technique, but bushido (the way of the warrior) demands that technique be effective and efficient. Survival depends on it!"
