Be part of a whole community - children, teens, parents, grandparents, adult singles - training together to improve their lives.
The first lesson at Aikido'Ka is respect - self-respect, respect for family, respect for teachers, respect for everyone. Respect improves everything.
Aikido is the martial art of peace. As an Aikido'Ka student, you learn to resolve all disputes (physical or emotional) without becoming an attacker yourself. You move with an attack, blending your motions with the attacker. Your blending movements take the energy of the attack from the attacker, taking the fight out of the fighter. In this way, you work to inflict no harm. And your martial art is very effective: You can use Aikido to gently control an attacker through to devastatingly powerful responses.
Please imagine the following:
You're a martial artist at Aikido'Ka. You don't fight. You blend with conflict. In your training, you're disciplined and train seriously. You also laugh and have fun. You're physically fit. While self-defense and physical fitness are important to you, your greater purpose is developing the wisdom and energy to positively benefit society. You view conflict not really as a contest with others, but as an opportunity to improve yourself and overcome your true enemies - those within you.
The benefits of training at Aikido'Ka are for everyone - all ages. In fact, at Aikido'Ka all ages train together.
