	Yoshokai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aikido Yoshokai Association of North America - AYANA (合氣道耀尚會) was founded in 1991 by Takashi Kushida, long-time student of Gozo Shioda, founder of Yoshinkan aikido.
		Yoshokai aikido is based at the Genyokan dojo in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
		Yoshokai ukemi is also distinct (similar to Yoshinkan ukemi), with more slapping of the spare hand/foot, and a more forward-feeling 'high fall' (called 'jumping breakfall' or 'hiyaku ukemi') than the usual sideways motion employed in aikido.

		If I had to say, I would consider myself primarily a 'Yoshokai aikidoka', though I greatly appreciate the Iwama dojo here and Louis Jumonville-sensei for his excellent instruction.
		Also, while there are clear 'pause points' for purpose of instruction, it is more flowing from the start, whereas Yoshokai would probably break some of those more complex motions down into several parts for instruction.
		I can say how it's not Yoshokai, but harder to say what it is itself.
