From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Ki Society was founded by Koichi Tohei in 1971, while he was still the head sensei at the Aikikai Hombu Dojo. Ki Society, or Ki no Kenkyukai, reflected Tohei Sensei's differences with the Aikikai, and his own emphasis on developing the concept of Ki.
The style taught by the Ki Society is often called "Ki-Aikido". Its official name is Shinshin Toitsu Aikido - "Aikido with mind and body unified".
(Also known as the Ki Research Society)
