“The Aikikai Foundation (公益財団法人合気会, Kōeki Zaidan Hōjin Aikikai) is the original aikido organization. It has been an incorporated entity in Japan since 1940 under the name Kōbukai Foundation [...] then re-registered under the name 'Aikikai' after the ban on Aikido practice was lifted by the GHQ in 1948.”
