Aikido? What is that?

Aikido is the art of resolving conflicts without violence. As one of the few purely defensive martial arts, it teaches you to deflect attacks without harming your opponent. The objective is for the attacker and defender to move together in harmony.

Aikido for children and teenagers

Aikido is a great way for children to explore their bodies and abilities in a playful way. Depending on their age, we teach them simple techniques that gradually become more complex, encouraging them to work in partnership with each other. Youth training is largely similar to adult classes and prepares the teenagers for the transition.

Kenjutsu? What is that?

Kenjutsu is the Japanese art of swordsmanship. Originally used to prepare samurai for battle, today it offers a path to personal development. Training is both physically and mentally demanding. Practicing with the sword improves alertness, presence of mind, and the ability to make clear decisions.
