Why you might like this course...
Start with people just like you. No need to feel awkward, you'll be in a group of 5-15 with one of our experienced instructors. The course is designed to give you an overview of the basics - without the gaps of being thrown straight into a regular class. Give yourself permission to be a kid again and learn skills like tumbling at your own pace on our thick practice mats.
Experienced Instructors...
Some of the nicest and most patient people in the world, our aikido instructors are all experienced practitioners and fully accredited and insured with Aikido Yuishinkai. All instructors have first aid training and hold ‘blue cards’ for child teaching and related training activities.

Great for health and fitness...
Aikido training is for the body and mind. Moderate exercise a few times a week is important for maintaining and improving health. Aikido training combines the mental discipline of learning an ancient art (you'll never get bored) together with physical activity at a pace your body is comfortable with. It combines anerobic weight bearing activity (vital for bone density development) together with aerobic activity ( for carcdo vascular health)during freestyle practice. The intensity of practice grows with your aikido skill base and physical development through training. If you can get up and down off the ground your ready to start aikido.
Great for Females...
Walk without fear! Aikido requires no advantage in strength or speed, so it can be practiced by women and men of all ages and ability. Our club has women from 17 to 70, several of whom wear black belts. Girls rule!
Self Defence for Everyone...
If you are looking for first class self defence and personal protection without the punches and pushups, try aikido. You don’t need to be fit to start and the training is easy. You can always go at your own pace and sit out at any time. We have lots of students and young people as well as a few oldies (but they’re cool).
