Traditional Martial Arts Training and Self Development

"11th Street Dojo" is the Dojo building that contains Aikido. We started as "Skidrow Dojo" in the back of a photo studio on Sixth Street in San Francisco February 1986. A group of artists & Punks asked Jimmy Friedman AKA; "Jim Bone" to teach them self-defense shortly after the violent murder of a loved one. Classes began in the shadow of tragedy, and Aikido in a small way helped heal the suffering these people were going through. Beginning as a club for that group of around ten friends, the dojo soon grew to the largest Aikido Dojo in SF. Sensei Jimmy Friedman is a 7th degree black belt in Aikido through the Aikikai Hombu Dojo & a black belt in BJJ
