=== Horikawa === The Horikawa branch descends from the teachings of Kōdō Horikawa. A few organizations have been formed based on his teachings. The {{Nihongo|Kodokai|幸道会|Kōdōkai}} was founded by students of Horikawa, whose distinctive interpretation of ''[[aiki (martial arts principle)|aiki]]'' movements can be seen in the movements of his students.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Pranin |first=Stanley |title=On separate language editions, Seigo Okamoto and Hakko-ryu Jujutsu |journal=Aiki News |volume=83 |date=January 1990 |url=http://www.aikidojournal.com/article?articleID=9 |access-date=20 July 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071016190403/http://www.aikidojournal.com/article?articleID=9 |archive-date=16 October 2007}}</ref> The Kodokai is located in Hokkaidō and is headed by Yusuke Inoue (''Inoue Yasuke'', born 1932). Both Inoue's father and his main teacher, Horikawa, were direct students of Takeda Sokaku. Inoue received his teaching license (''[[Menkyo Kaiden]]'') in accordance with Horikawa's final wishes. There are two major teachers who branched off from the Kodokai to establish their own traditions. The first was Seigō Okamoto (岡本 正剛 ''Okamoto Seigō'', 1925-2015) who founded the {{Nihongo|Daito-ryu Aikijujutsu Roppokai|大東流 合気柔術 六方会|Daitō-ryū Aiki-jūjutsu Roppōkai}}. His interpretation of ''aiki'' and minimal movement throws. The organization has a great following abroad, especially in the United States and Europe.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Pranin |first=Stanley |title=Interview with Seigo Okamoto Shihan (02) |journal=Aiki News |volume=84 |date=Spring 1990 |url=http://www.aikidojournal.com/article?articleID=402&highlight=kodokai |access-date=20 July 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071015180150/http://www.aikidojournal.com/article?articleID=402&highlight=kodokai |archive-date=15 October 2007}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last = Roppokai|title = History|work = Information|publisher = www.daitoryu-roppokai.org|year = 2005|url = http://www.daitoryu-roppokai.org/site/Information/History/tabid/55/Default.aspx|access-date = 20 July 2007|url-status = dead|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20070928011245/http://www.daitoryu-roppokai.org/site/Information/History/tabid/55/Default.aspx|archive-date = 28 September 2007}}</ref> Another group was that of Katsumi Yonezawa (米沢 克巳 ''Yonezawa Katsumi'', 1937–1998), who founded his own organization, called the {{Nihongo|[[Bokuyōkan]]|牧羊館}}. In the early 1970s, while Yonezawa was still a senior teacher at the Kodokai, he was the first person to bring Daitō-ryū Aiki-jūjutsu to the United States and Canada.<ref>{{cite encyclopedia| last = Pranin| first = Stanley| title = Yonezawa, Katsumi| encyclopedia = Encyclopedia of Aikido| year = 2006| url = http://www.aikidojournal.com/encyclopedia?entryID=778| access-date = 20 July 2007| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20071017200408/http://www.aikidojournal.com/encyclopedia?entryID=778| archive-date = 17 October 2007}}</ref> The Bokuyōkan is currently run by his son Hiromitsu Yonezawa (''Yonezawa Hiromitsu''), headquartered in Hokkaidō, with a following at the Yonezawa ''dojo'' and several branches in the United States, as well as a ''dojo'' in Germany.<ref>{{cite web|last = Tung|first = Tim|title = Links|work = TungBudo.com|publisher = Cat and Moon Productions|date = 2005|url = http://TungBudo.com/links.htm|access-date = 20 July 2007|url-status = usurped|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20070715195145/http://www.tungbudo.com/links.htm|archive-date = 15 July 2007}}</ref>
