description of the school
Shun Poo Kan Aikido teaches traditional Aikido philosophy and techniques. Founded in the United Kingdom in 1977, it is led by Brian Burrows, 6th Dan.
Shun Poo Kan roughly translates into Spring Breeze. This is an apt name as one only has to attend a few classes at any of the Shun Poo Kan dojos to realize that the school promotes a refreshing atmosphere of cooperation, respect and integrity.
Classes are designed for absolute beginners. Primarily an adult class, Mr. Gilbert regularly teaches seminars to younger students to introduce them to the art. Aikido can be taught to children as young as 8. (Younger students may be accepted after discussion with the instructor) Students will learn basic techniques, break-falls, history and etiquette.
