In 1959 Nuuanu YMCA became the first YMCA in the USA to offer aikido classes. In 1960 Sadao Yoshioka Sensei (1922-1990) became the chief instructor. In 1970 Aikido Doshu Kisshomaru Ueshiba (1921-1999) awarded Yoshioka Sensei the title of Shihan. The current Nuuanu Aikido Club instructors are students of Yoshioka Sensei.
