Aikido

Aikido of Owensboro is a martial arts school in Owensboro, Kentucky, focused on the study and instruction of Aikido. Founded in the early 1990s by Daniel Caslin, who has practiced Aikido since 1976, the school emphasizes the art’s distinctive character and purpose rather than a competitive approach. Instruction supports students interested in fitness, self-defense, peace of mind, and the sense of connection developed through shared practice. The school also reflects an ongoing teacher-student lineage, with assistant instructor Rick Triplett contributing to a learning environment grounded in long study and close transmission of the tradition established by Aikido founder Morihei Ueshiba.
