Vietnam

On the 04/07/1963, at 54/14 Nguyen Binh Khiem, Saigon (The center for training martial arts), Sensei Wanatabe Haruye opened Yoseikan Aikido classes with the master mentor Kazuo Ischikawa (from the French Institute Yoseikan to VietNam to teach Judo). One of the most outstanding disciples of these men was Mr. Nguyen Dang Duc. And he then became the first representative of Aikido Yoseikan Vietnam.

After a period of time two different schools of thought came about relating to the practice and teaching style of Vietnam Aikido Yoseikan, from that the school split into two branches. On the 08/10/1968, Sensei Le Van Nhi established a dojo under the name Aikibudo at the Sports Club in Saigon (CSS), 55 Red Cross, this is The department of Culture and Labor now.

In 1970, to avoid confusion with the modern Aikido tauch by Sensei Dang Thong Phong, Sensei Nguyen Dang Duc decided to change the name Aikido Yoseikan to Aiki Jujitsu. and this name has been used until now in Ho Chi Minh only
