The instructors

Morito Suganuma Shihan, 8. dan Aikikai


Suganuma Sensei was one of the last Uchideshis of the Founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba. In 1970 he was sent to Fukuoka by the late Doshu Kishomaru Ueshiba to build up Aikido in Kyushu and Western Japan. Due to his great Budo knowledge and understanding of Japanese culture – as well as his personality, this work has given outstanding results. Today he is responsible for more than 100 Dojos and 4000 students under the umbrella of Shoheijuku. In 2013, the Japan Martial arts Council gave him the “Contributor to the promotion of the Martial arts Award”. This is the most prestigious award in the Japanese Budo world. Suganuma Sensei first visited Norway in 1986, and this year he will teach his 15th summer seminar with us.

Bjørn Eirik Olsen Shihan, 6. dan Aikikai

Bjørn Eirik Sensei started with Aikido in Tromsø in 1977. Later he practiced in London for one year and in Japan for six years – and visited Japan more than 50 times. Important teachers were Minoru Kanetsuka, Morito Suganuma, Minoru Inaba, Morihiro Saito and Seiseki Abe, as well as the late Doshu Kishomaru Ueshiba and the present Doshu Moriteru Ueshiba. Since 1998 he has been the Chief instructor of the Norwegian Aikido Federation. He has also been teaching in England, Greece, Germany, Vietnam and the USA, and through the Aikido Guide application, his instruction is now reaching out to Aikido students in 60 countries.
