Nakama
Dojo (companions club) practice the art of Aiki
Jutsu under the umbrella of Dentokan UK. In the
UK, Dentokan Aiki Jutsu is practised as a style
of Aikido, hence we are affiliated to the British
Aikido Board (the national governing body for
all Aikido styles) via the Aikido Research Federation.
All instructors are accredited by the B.A.B, regularly
attend ARF/BAB courses and hold Coach Awards,
First Aid certification and appropriate insurance.
Our
founder, Sensei Roy Hobbs, was trained and qualfied
in Aikido at Aikikai affiliated dojos in Tokyo
when stationed there during his service with the
USAF, and was awarded his Shodan in Aikido by
the Tokyo Aikikai. Sensei Roy Hobbs was late awarded
4th Dan in Aikido in addition to his other martial
arts qualifications.
The
purpose of Nakama Dojo is, devoid of discrimination,
to promote the Martial Art of Aiki Jutsu. The
aim is to contribute to the well being of mind,
body & spirit of all participants. Further
on by means of practice raise awareness and practical
ability in self defence. The club instructors
and senior grades have extensive experience. They
will support and encourage students in their practice/
development.
Aiki
Jutsu is a traditional Japanese style which is
amenable to anyone with a reasonable level of
fitness. The Art proves itself as very rewarding
and absorbing both mentally and physically.
Nakama
Dojo are a non-profit making organisation. All
instructors donate their time FREE of charge.
The Felixstowe Dojo was formed by Angelo Ragucci
(Chief Instructor and Founder) in 2004 and soon
gained recognition as a sociable Dojo with very
supportive members. In 2010 the Ipswich Dojo was
formed as a result of members' dedication and
development, again proving a sociable and supportive
membership.
