Named for one of the highest ideals in Japanese Budo, Makoto means "Oneness in Word and Deed."
It is named to remind the instructor and the students to aspire to this ideal, to train hard, and to train consistently.
Makoto dojo primarily offers Daitoryu Aikijujutsu Training, as the official dojo of the North Carolina Roppokai. We train to honor our Master and our chosen Budo. We do not train for show, competition or profit. All dues go towards maintenance of the school and furthering our training.
