May 12th - June 2nd
The 4-week course will introduce aikido practice for Tacoma area students. Learn the principles of aikido position and movement, body conditioning, falling, rolling, dojo culture and philosophy. This introductory program also provides a good grounding for those who want to pursue further study (note: the program is not required for regular enrollment at Tacoma Aikikai).
Aikido is a modern martial art developed in Japan. Known as “the way of harmony”, aikido neutralizes an opponent’s attacks through joint locks and throws. Through sincere training, students of all ages and abilities find confidence in conflict resolution, improved fitness and flexibility, and an overall sense of well-being.
