Allegheny Aikikai was founded in
1995 as an independent member dojo of the United
States Aikido Federation. The dojo is currently part of Allegheny
Aikikai Aikido and Joseki Judo and Ju-Jitsu, Inc., formed by Jan
Finkbeiner and David
Hurtubise.
AAA and JJJ, Inc. was created in
2004 as a not-for-profit enterprise to promote Aikido, Judo, and
Ju-Jitsu in central Pennsylvania. Instructors at AAA and
JJJ are not paid a salary; they contribute their time and their
expertise because of their dedication to the martial arts and
their desire to pass on a tradition of high quality martial arts
practice.
Allegheny Aikikai is also an affiliate of Capital
Aikikai in Silver Spring Maryland. Members of Allegheny Aikikai
attend seminars and take ranking exams at Capital
Aikikai.
