Reno Aikido

Aikido is a Japanese martial art developed by "O-Sensei" or the "Great Teacher" Morihei Ueshiba. Aikido focuses not on punching or kicking opponents, but rather on using their own energy to gain control of them or to throw them away from you.

According to Reno Aikido (135 South Wells Ave); after studing various sword fighting and jujitsu styles, The Great Teacher became famous as one of the strongest men of Japan. More detailed history...

Morihiro Saito started training with O-Sensei in 1946 in his home village of Iwama, Japan. He was not only a student but became a close confidant over a 23-year period. After the founder's death, Saito Sensei was put in charge of the Iwama dojo, and became guardian of the Aiki-shrine.

Vince Salvatore was accepted as a live-in apprentice at the original Aikido School under Saito Sensei in Iwama. Studying intensely under Saito Sensei, he lived in Japan until July of 1999. Vince Sensei has experience teaching people from all over the world, and has been the Chief Instructor at "Aikido of Reno" since January 2000.
