Kids' Classes

Aikido is an ideal martial art for children. It develops strength, flexibility, co-ordination and graceful movement. Practicing with others, your child will develop respect, trust, and co-operation in a group setting. Aikido has no competitions. The training does not emphasize gaining victory over others; rather, it is concerned with self-development through individual effort. Although Aikido is a very effective and dynamic martial art, the use of force or aggression is not encouraged. Aikido training focuses on relaxed and centered technique and seeks to bring harmony to any given situation, teaching your child that there are alternative ways to deal with life situations other than passivity or aggression.

Most importantly of all, Aikido is fun!!!
