History
Report
Aikido was founded by Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969). Morihei Ueshiba is universally referred to as O'Sensei which means "Great Teacher." O'Sensei spent a lifetime studying many different types of Japanese budo or martial arts where he developed a great deal of expertise, but he was also a deeply religious man as well.
Classes
Report
Fundamentals class aims to provide students with the core skills needed to build a strong foundation. The class is generally at a slower pace so that students can concentrate on building strong basic or kihon-waza fundamental Aikido skills which is the surest path to gain technical proficiency. There is no forward ukemi or rolling techniques in this class.
Children
Report
Aikido is not taught as a competitive sport but rather as a martial art which cultivates the latent power of the mind and the body. In addition to learning the martial art of Aikido, children naturally become more agile, stronger and flexible in our program. Children are taught the principles of respect, self-discipline, and caring, all in a very fun, but disciplined atmosphere.
Iaido
Report
Saki yakitachi o nukeba, masu masu masurao no kokoro wo togu bekari keri "Before you draw the tempered blade, first temper and purify your own soul." Simply put, Iaido is to simply draw and cut with a sword and return the sword to the scabbard. This simple action must be brought to the highest level of excellence where the opponent cannot resist it, cannot avoid it, and is helpless against it.
