🔸 About Kayla Feder Shihan 🔸

Kayla Feder Shihan, 7th dan Aikikai, is the founder and chief instructor at Aikido of Berkeley. In 1973 at age of 9 Kayla fell in love with Aikido and now has over 50 years of continuous training in the art. For the first 20 years of her practice, she was greatly inspired by training under Morihiro Saito Shihan, who was one of the Morihei Ueshiba’s closest students. In 1980 Kayla Sensei traveled to Iwama, Japan to train with Saito Shihan as an uchi deshi (live-in apprentice). During subsequent trips to study Aikido in Japan, Sensei trained under many direct students of the founder of Aikido, including Kisshomaru Ueshiba, Seiichi Sugano, Motomichi Anno, and Kazuo Chiba. Since childhood she has also practiced with and been strongly influenced by Frank Doran Shihan, Robert Nadeau Shihan, and Hiroshi Ikeda Shihan.

Kayla Sensei teaches seminars throughout the US and Europe. In addition to her Aikido accomplishments she received a Masters degree in Holistic Health Education from JFK University.
Kayla Sensei recognizes that we all have different bodies, histories, ages and learning styles. She is dedicated to making Aikido accessible for anyone and her teaching style supports the individual growth of each student. She has created a warm and welcoming community at Aikido of Berkeley. Sensei also includes yoga and meditation practices as part of the training at Aikido of Berkeley. She views Aikido as a holistic art and has said: “There is no end to the growth and learning we aspire to through our Aikido practice both on and off the mat”. She continues to dedicate herself to the daily process of changing and growing within herself and her practice and teaching of Aikido.
