We are back in our beautiful dojo! Aikido classes are on Monday and Wednesday nights at 6-7:30pm and Saturday mornings from 9-10:30am. Knife Fighting classes from 10:45-11:45am on Saturdays. Come on down and try it out or observe class if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you.
These days the term "martial arts" has been watered down to the extent that people think of it as just a fighting system, "self defense, " or even worse, MMA or cage fighting.The current perception of martial arts is so mired in fallacies and misunderstandings that people do not know the power and the depth of what it once was, and still is, if you have the eyes to see and the will to seek it out.

Shoubu Dojo is in many ways Tucson's best kept secret. Having studied in martial arts myself for over 13 years, I was critical about the potential for learning traditional martial arts effectively here in the United States.
Thanks to his fluency in both Japanese and Aikido, Cody Lewallen Sensei has not only an understanding of the art for himself as a skilled practitioner, but has the ability to communicate the art's meaning eloquently, pragmatically, and concisely-a truly unique trait in a teacher these days.

As a traditional Japanese Aikido school, we make the important distinction between a school and a business. We are not here to sell memberships, hand out black belts, or sign up customers. It is our duty and obligation to pass learning down from hundreds of years of tradition.
If you were to join a University for example, the first thing on your mind would be your desired education and whether that institution has the qualified professors, the resources, and the ability to get you where you want to be.Asking the tuition price before doing your research on the University is a bit like putting the cart before the horse.

In this special Knife Fighting class students learn how to use a knife as a weapon to defend themselves. The best way to learn how to defend yourself from a knife attack is to know how to use a knife.
