Aikido For Kids: Advanced Program

The cooperative training style of aikido is unique in the world of martial arts training. In aikido classes, kids are working together to learn both how to fall and how to throw one another safely and effectively. They learn that success in aikido is achieved through blending and relaxation rather than confrontation and tension. The exercises practiced in the dojo improve balance and coordination, concentration, spatial awareness, and self-confidence. 

We aim to teach lifelong skills for peaceful conflict resolution through the principles and practice of aikido.

Aikido for kids ages 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12

In consideration of the very flexible yet still developing physiology of kids’ bodies, the techniques that we practice in these classes end in throws and falls rather than joint locks, while in adult classes, a combination of both are practiced.

All of our current kids’ programming will run as a series of 6-week courses. Each session of this twice-per-week program is $300/per child. Please fill out this form to be added to the waitlist for our upcoming kids’ aikido session.
