Japan Karate Association, Aikikai Kowa-kan
This dojo was established in 1972 and offers training in karate, aikido, and iaido.
The grave of Shiro Takatsuna Sasaki, the ancestor of Tsuji Gatetan (the founder of Mugeiryu), is located at this area. In the back of the dojo, there is a small but well-stocked library of books and other materials related to Mugei-ryu to help the school.
Every year, the dojo welcomes karate and iaido practitioners from Belgium.
