Oslo Aikido Dojo was founded in Oslo on the 16th of june 2003 by Erik Vanem and Pedram Bagheri. We are located in Eikenga 17 between Hasle and Økern. We have classes four
times a week.
In addition to the ordinary training program, we organize annual seminars with Takanori
Kuribayashi (7th dan Shihan Hombu Dojo). Every second year we organize the Oslo Aikido festival with instructors from
all the Oslo dojos.
The logo at the upper left corner of the web page is the trademark of Oslo Aikido Dojo and
is designed by the club. The official opening and first practice were held on July 18. 2003 in the club’s first dojo
located at Alexander Kiellands Plass. In 2004 we moved to Bryn where we stayed for 12 years. In 2016 we moved to our
current location at Eikenga, between Hasle and Økern. We train in spacious facilities and have showers, wardrobes and
a small recreational area. The mat area is about 140 square meters with traditional tatami.
The dojo’s highest
authority is the general assembly, which appoints the members of the executive board. Day-to-day management is done by
two committees: the executive board and the instructor committee. The executive board is responsible for day-to-day
operations, while the instructor committee is responsible for the technical aspects of Aikido such as grading and
instruction.
