About Shisei Ryū Aikibudō
Shisei Ryū Aikibudō stands as a living testament to the profound depth and elegance of traditional Japanese martial arts. Rooted in the principles of Aiki, this system embodies the seamless integration of mind, body, and spirit, teaching practitioners not only the mastery of technique but also the cultivation of character, awareness, and harmony.
The art owes its modern form to the vision of the late Gary W. Ducote, Kaiso, whose dedication to the preservation and transmission of authentic Aikibudō ensured that the art would thrive across generations. Kaiso Ducote’s approach combined rigorous technical training with a philosophy that emphasized discipline, respect, and the ethical application of martial skill, leaving a legacy that continues to inspire practitioners worldwide.
Today, the lineage is proudly carried forward by Sōke Jefferey Lane, who upholds the traditions of Shisei Ryū Aikibudō while guiding its evolution for contemporary practice. Under Sōke Lane’s stewardship, students learn to move with precision, control, and grace, mastering techniques steeped in centuries of history while developing the resilience, focus, and integrity that define true martial excellence.
Shisei Ryū Aikibudō is more than a martial art; it is a journey of transformation. Through disciplined training, students cultivate strength of body, clarity of mind, and refinement of spirit, discovering a path that enriches both their practice and their daily lives. The art remains committed to honoring its lineage, preserving its philosophy, and nurturing the next generation of martial artists who walk the path with reverence, skill, and purpose.
Embark on the journey of Shisei Ryū Aikibudō, and experience the enduring art, philosophy, and spirit that continue to shape lives and inspire generations.
