Morihei Ueshiba was a master martial artist and a devout follower of the Omoto Kyo Religion. He was born in Western Japan in 1883 and passed away in 1969. Ueshiba had an exceptional level of spiritual awareness and studied several classical styles of Enjin Shin Yo-Ryu Jujutsu, Goto-Ha YagyuShingan-Ryu, and Daito-Ryu Jujutsu. His passion for self-defense inspired him to create Aikido, an art that maximizes protection with minimal force. Aikido training consists of two partners practicing pre-arranged forms. The receiver initiates an attack and the person applying the technique, the tori or shite, neutralizes the attack using an aikido technique. This technique is based on the idea that the least amount of force is used to protect oneself. Aikido is a martial art where one can achieve maximum defense with minimal effort.

Jujutsu is an ancient Japanese martial art that is still practiced today. It focuses on armed and unarmed combat techniques and is sometimes referred to as “Japanese jujutsu” to distinguish it from its Brazilian derivative. It was developed by the samurai of medieval Japan, with each family or clan having their own particular style. Today, jujutsu offers a wide variety of arts such as Judo, Aikido, and many others. Westerners only had access to the study of jujutsu after World War II. This martial art is still a popular practice today and is an effective way to defend oneself.

The Marine Environmental Education Center (MEEC) was opened with the desire to educate and delight locals and tourists alike through our educational green sea turtles, Captain and Coral, and the splendor of the coastal environment in South Florida. The MEEC was fostered from a partnership between Broward County Parks and Recreation and Nova Southeastern University. The facility is located on the historic grounds of the Carpenter House, built in 1941 by Hank Carpenter, at Hollywood North Beach Park in Hollywood, Florida. Broward County acquired the property thanks to the wishes of the Carpenters that it not be developed.
