Our Mission Statement
Aikido of Manhattan was created for the purpose of teaching, spreading and perpetuating the fundamental philosophy, discipline and techniques of Aikido established by its founder, Master Morehei Ueshiba.
Juba Nour Sensei, Director and Chief Instructor of Aikido of Manhattan, studied the art as an Uchi-deshi of Master K. Chiba, 8th Dan, in 1983. After four years of apprenticeship with Master K. Chiba, Juba Sensei apprenticed in Tokyo, Japan under the guidance of late Master K. Ueshiba.

His first school was established in New Haven, Connecticut (Connecticut Aikikai), now run by Mike Sidebottom Sensei, 4th Dan. Juba Sensei has also taught in Europe and in various seminars. Juba Sensei established the Aikido of Manhattan in 1995.
