Aikido is a martial art accessible to all, women and men, old or young. We practice in accordance with the capacities and limitations of the partner.
Aikido consists of techniques with weapons and bare hands using the strength of the opponent not to defeat him, but to annihilate his attack.
In Aikido everything is a circle, everything is suppleness, everything is mouvement, everything is harmony. Aikido is the way of a physical culture, of a moral culture, it is born in the Traditional Martial Arts of Japan for the accomplishment of the human being.
What is fabulous about aikido is that the whole being aspires for the the combat not to take place. The combat is bad in itself. Martial Art must be love. Some say that Aikido is a form of religious expression of Japanese Martial Arts. In any case in Aikido there is no match, no competition, no championship, the combat is bad. It is undoubtedly the most harmonious, the most graceful discipline of the Budo.

We are a club of Aikido who is concerned with the transmission of Aikido according to the principles of the Aikikai of Tokyo, Hombu Dojo (Aikido World Headquarters).
Our dojo is linked to the Renwakai Group led by Alain Tendron Shihan and Frank Noël Shihan.
We offer courses for beginners to whom we pay close attention since they represent the succession and vitality of the art.
He began the practice of Aikido in 2004 at the Aikido de la Montagne dojo under the direction of C, Berthiaume Shihan (7th dan). From the outset of his training, he regularly participated in seminars across North America conducted by distinguished instructors, including Y. Yamada Shihan, K. Chiba Shihan, D. Waite Shihan, and numerous others.
In 2006, he had the privilege of meeting Master H. Osawa Shihan (8th dan). Beginning in 2008, he consistently followed Master Osawa’s teaching at seminars throughout the East Coast of North America, including those held in Halifax, New York, New Jersey, Toronto, and Montreal.
In 2011, he encountered Master C. Tissier Shihan (8th dan) and has since attended all of his seminars, as well as the annual summer camp in Montreal.
In 2012, he travelled to Japan for a three-month period of intensive full-time training at the Hombu Dojo in Tokyo under the guidance of Master Osawa Shihan. During this time, he also had the opportunity to train daily under several other senior instructors of the Hombu Dojo, notably Miyamoto Shihan (8th dan), Seki Shihan (8th dan), and Kuribayashi Shihan (7th dan).
From 2012 to 2017, he served as an instructor at Aikido de la Montagne.
In 2013, he returned to Japan for a further two-month period of training, studying in Tokyo and Osaka with Shimamoto Shihan (8th dan) and Hori Shihan (7th dan).
Since 2014, he has participated in all seminars directed by Master S. Endo Shihan (8th dan) in Montreal and Toronto.
Since 2016, he has followed the instruction of Master Alain Tendron Shihan (7th dan), whose centered, powerful, soft, and relaxed approach to Aikido has been a profound source of inspiration. A direct student of the late Master Yamaguchi Seigo Shihan (9th dan, 1924–1996), Master Tendron is also the founder of the Renwakai group.
In 2017, he established the Ensō Aikido dojo.
In 2024, he met Yoshida Tomoyuki Shihan, a student of Yamaguchi Shihan, and has since trained under his direction. He continues to return regularly to Japan for periods of full-time training.
Philippe Boué, now 5th Dan Aikikai, started aikido at the University of Grenoble (France) under the direction of Eric Matton (4th Dan). For 4 years, this teacher taught him the basics of this art that he has not stopped practicing since.
During a seminar in Grenoble, he met Franck Noel Shihan (7th Dan Aïkikai) for the first time and made the choice, once his studies were completed, to join Toulouse to take full advantage of his teaching. . He will stay for nearly 7 years at the Roseraie dojo, diligently studying aikido with it, even following him in his weekend seminars or summer camps.
During his stay in Toulouse, seminars in Europe and even short trips to Japan, he crosses paths with teachers who will be as much inspiration: Endo Seishiro Shihan (8th Dan Aikikai), Philippe Grangé Sensei (6th Dan Aikikai) , Dirk Mueller Sensei (6th Dan Aikikai)…
After a few round trips between Germany and Toulouse, he flew to Quebec where he settled in Montreal. He immediately joined the Shoshin Dojo under the direction of Karl Grignon (4th Dan Aikikai) whom he followed for 6 years.
During these 6 years, Philippe reconnects with the teaching of aikido, in Montreal on an ad hoc basis but also at the Aikido Sanso Saint Jérôme dojo where Sensei Marc-André Lalande invites him to teach on a regular basis.
After 20 years of practice, on January 11, 2016, Philippe Boué decided to open his dojo to teach his practice of aikido.
Born on the 2nd of June 1974 in Montpellier (France), Marc started practicing aikido in 2000 in Paris under the supervision of Bernard Palmier shihan. He then follows several french masters such as Christian Tissier, Franck Noel or Arnaud Waltz during seminars. Back in Montpellier in 2002, he joins Alain Tendron and the RenWaKai group. He starts teaching aikido classes on a regular basis in Montpellier in 2012. Owning a french aikido teacher diploma in 2012, and a 3rd dan grade in 2013, he will keep following the teachings of Master Tendron, even after moving to Montreal in 2014.
