Kids and Teen Program

The Kids and Teen program offers younger members an excellent introduction to aikido. Students in the program will learn not only basic aikido techniques, but also a variety of skills and principles through aerobic physical exercise and mental discipline. The training is designed to encourage the students to learn necessary Japanese etiquette and respect for tradition, also to develop sensitivity and patience towards their fellow students. The program emphasizes cooperation with one’s training partner. Aikido techniques are taught as a paired practice; where partners take turns assuming the role of attacker and defender. Learning conflict requires opposition, and resolution is in harmony! Classes are taught in the same traditional format as the adult classes. Ages 6 years to 14 years.
