Steven Seagal was born in Lansing, Michigan to a Jewish father and an Irish Catholic mother. In his youth, he relocated to Fullerton, California and began studying the martial arts under the direction of renowned ****o-ryu karate master Fumio Demura and aikido under Rod Kobayashi the President of the Western States Aikido Federation. In his late teens, Seagal became part of Demura's Karate Demonstration Team and performed daily demonstrations in Japanese Deer Park, an amusement park in Southern California. In 1974 he was promoted by Kobayashi Sensei to Shodan in Shin Shin Toitsu Aikido.
It was also about this time that he met Miyako Fujitani at a seminar in southern California and the two were later married. Fujitani's mother owned an aikido dojo, the Tenshin Dojo in Osaka. Segal moved to Japan and changed affiliation from Koichi Tohei's Ki Society and Shin Shin Toitsu Aikdo to the Hombu Aikikai and was promoted from Shodan (1st degree) to Yondan (4th degree).
Upon his return to the United States, Seagal opened the Tenshin Bugei Gakuen in 1982, after the Dojo where he trained in Japan.
