Directions to the Dojo

Toronto Aikikai is just steps from the Dundas West subway station and the intersections of Dundas St. West and Bloor St. West, and of Dundas St.West and Roncesvalles Ave.

Just south of Bloor, there is a pet supplies store beside a tires store (KalTire) on Dundas, and just past them, there is a large parking lot. Our building is at the end of the parking lot, to the right (south)of the Loblaws supermarket.
