20,21 et 22 mars 2008, maître WILKO VRIESMAN, 5ème Dan Hombo Dojo, directeur technique du Dutch Aikikai Foundation et directeur de comité olympique hollandais s'est à tunis pour animer quelques séances d'aikido.
Concernant la dutch aikikai foundation:
The Dutch Aikikai Foundation has its headquarters in Amsterdam and is that part of the Dutch Aikikai which is directly linked to the Aikikai Foundation in Tokyo, Japan, the international centre of Aikido where highest authority is the Doshu, Moriteru Ueshiba.
Though based on this core orientation, which focuses on the Ueshiba line, our line also appreciates the legacy of the Hombu Shihan Seigo Yamaguchi, passed on to us by his students. Consequently, the Dutch Aikikai Foundation maintains close ties with Christian Tissier Shihan. Whenever the opportunity arises, other shihan from this line, such as Seishiro Endo Shihan and Masatoshi Yasuno Shihan, are also invited to come and teach.
As part of the Dutch Aikikai Federation, part of the NAF, together with other organisations we represent the Netherlands in the IAF and the Martial Arts Games. We are so fortunate as to be guided in this matter by Hiroshi Isoyama Shihan, the technical advisor of the IAF.
The Dutch Aikikai Foundation is a guild of professional and semi-professional people, with the Technical Director, Wilko Vriesman, at its head.
