Description

Classes at Bushido Aiki Dojo are typically dynamic with an emphasis on martial integrity,  uke arts (including defensive falling), and honest practice. O’Sensei, the Founder of Aikido, was a strong believer in the concept of joyous practice, and this principle is highly valued at our dojo.

Classes are designed to be accessible to everyone and time is set aside to give focused training for beginner and senior levels.  Safe practice is a priority.

Our dojo prides itself on being an inclusive and non-discriminatory dojo. Students from other martial arts and Aikido schools are always welcome.

While each class differs, training typically involves some or all of the following.

Preliminary Exercises

In every class, time is set aside to warm the body and prepare for more vigorous training.  Pre-set exercises are performed at the beginning of each class.

A strong emphasis during these exercises is the maintenance of central equilibrium in our body structure, including an awareness of weight distribution, toppling points, relaxed power, “heaven-man-earth” principles, subtleness, and speed.

The skills developed during the preliminary exercises directly translate to the more dynamic practice that is to follow.
