Aikido Classes
We hold Aikido classes
Mondays & Wednesdays 7pm-9pm
Visitors are welcome! The classes are for adults only (17+).
We use exercises and Aikido techniques to practice the central Principles of Aikido. (See Aikido Training)
In our first hour of class, we use a varity of exercises to practice the Principles.
In our second hour of class, we use Aikido techniques to practice the Principles.
In general, our practice is focused on physical movement from the center, blending with an attack, and leading the energy toward a non-damaging resolution.
Getting Started
Getting started with us is as simple as showing up. If you do not own a gi (martial arts uniform), simply bring some clean sweat pants and t-shirt and you are welcome to participate. Training starts from wherever you are and whatever you are comfortable with and continues at your pace.
We ask that you participate in a class or two before deciding to become a member, so that you can get a feel for the art and our dojo.
