Description

Dojo in Casablanca created in 1970 by M'Barek Alaoui and Emile Metzinger after they left Georges Stobbaerts, following the falling-out between Stobbaerts and Nobuyoshi Tamura at the Budo Club du Maroc. It followed the Tamura (Aikikai) line and is described on its Facebook page as the first aikido school in Morocco and Africa, created by Alaoui; it remains active under the Alaoui family.

  Probable

  After the 1970 split, the Syu do kan co-founded by Metzinger and Alaoui followed the Tamura (Aikikai) line, per the Aikido Journal interview; the teacher relationship is inferred from the school's line rather than stated directly.
