Sensei Omohundro began Aikido training in San Diego, CA in 1992. Over the years, he has trained under the guidance of Chiba Sensei, Burns Sensei, and Peterson Sensei as a member of Birankai North America. His service to his country as a U.S. Marine has given him opportunity to train and help teach in dojos across the country including New River Aikikai, NC and Joshua’s Forge, CA. Omohundro Sensei is recognized as a YonDan (4th Degree Black Belt) by both Birankai North America and the International Aikido Federation. Omohundro Sensei is a certified instructor with Birankai North America.
Sensei Omohundro's approach to Aikido focuses on the teachings of Chiba Sensei and the curriculum of Birankai North America. We feel that Aikido is a truly defensive Martial Art that needs to be cultivated into the body, mind, and spirit. Our focus remains constant; Be prepared for a confrontation. Living Well Aikido is dedicated to helping achieve a true understanding of Aikido as a method to avoid confrontation. Our Goal is to learn to protect ourselves and our family. Living Well Aikido remains a small and focused group of like minded practitioners dedicated to learning Aikido. Only through committed training does the body and mind transform into our desired expectations.
We do not believe in long term payment plans. Students pay monthly.

Living Well Aikido is a traditional style Aikido training program. There are two significant facets to Living Well Aikido:
1) Aikido is a constantly evolving training methodology that continuously fills us with a harmonious relationship with our environment. As with a well of water, as we remove water from the well, it refills so we may receive more.
2) Aikido should be done with a sense of Well-Being and a conscious effort to improve ourselves and those we train with. It is our desire that all our students and practitioners Live Well.
Living Well Aikido is a non-competitive style. We do not wish our skills to be honed through competition with others, but rather through harmonious training. We regularly attend seminars throughout the New England Region and across the United States to train and work with other Aikido Practitioners and improve our Aikido skills. Aikido is often referred to as The Way of Harmony. We strive to embrace a training philosophy that brings out the best in each and every person.
