I am really happy to congratulate Gotaro Kitayama on the commencement of the Aikido Kitayama Dojo.
Gotaro has dedicated himself to the study of the art of aikido over many years.  Already a leader and gifted instructor, he is well prepared to take on the responsibility of being a teacher in his own right.
Prospective members of the Aikido Kitayama Dojo can be confident that they are learning an authentic version of the art in a true Japanese cultural context.  Parents in particular, can be assured that their children will be supported in a safe, happy and disciplined environment. 
Gotaro and his family are wonderful people and I am fortunate to count them as my friends.
I am looking forward to the future growth of aikido in Gold Coast under the guidance of Kitayama Sensei.
