Takemusu Aiki Tomita Academy was founded in 1992 and today is represented in Italy, France, England, Portugal, Finland, Sweden and Russia.
The Academy is the result of many years research and insight into the origins of the Samurai, Bushido, Bugei, Bujutsu and Budo history.
This knowledge was combined with detailed studies in physics, anatomy and psychology.

The main purpose of the Academy is to create a defence method that fuses art, spirit, mind and body.
The aim of disciplined training in different techniques is never the techniques as an end in themselves, but the understanding of the main principle at work and its essence which is to be found in all techniques.
The disciplinary art of Aikido provides each individual with a greater sense of physical and mental awareness, improved self-esteem and a method for achieving stronger mental health and stability.

Independent and self-adjusting human beings are able to live in harmony with themselves and others and thereby minimize the risks for conflicts and agressions in everyday life.
Thus the purpose of practicing Aikido is much greater than just the ability of handling physical aggressions.
Today, Tomita is acknowledged as a great master in the Aikido world. He sees his life as a mission: namely that of being a bridge between Japanese and the western world and most importantly, a bridge that helps western people to attain the traditional culture of the SAMURAI.
