Aikido Bushin is a Spokane dojo affiliated with the Aikido Schools of Ueshiba. Sensei Gene Nelson, a fourth degree black belt who has studied aikido for over 40 years, teaches most of the classes. The word bushin in the name appears in a passage the dojo quotes from John Stevens' Budo Secrets: “There is a progression from bu-jutsu (martial techniques) to budo (martial way) to bushin (martial spirit).”

Aikido classes meet on Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings. Tuesdays and Thursdays on the dojo's schedule belong to Integrity Martial Arts Taekwondo.

Visitors are invited to come by and “watch Aikido in action,” so watching a class is an easy first step. Prices, trial classes and the age a student can start go unmentioned, and that first visit is a good moment to ask about all three.

  • Affiliated with the Aikido Schools of Ueshiba
