Times and Costs- Training in Aikido
- Training in Aikido requires consistent and diligent practice. Although as a beginner you might train just once a week, you should be prepared to make a commitment to train at least two or three times a week if you want to make progress in the future. Sincere and dedicated practice is required to attain a state of being in which philosophy, technique, attitude and spirit merge. When there is no longer a distinction between daily life and the practice of Aikido we truly will be following the "Way of Harmony".
- The physical aspects of Aikido, as graceful and dynamic as they can be, are only the outward manifestation of what is, most importantly, a real and direct way to improve our quality of life.
- Instructors
- The Newport Dojo has internationally recognised Aikido Yuishinkai instructors in the form of Head Dojo Instructor, Gesmond Vella and Senior Instructor, Andrew Long. The instructors are continually upgrading thier knowledge and skills with local and overseas seminars and visits. With this continual improvement philosophy and approach combined with the many years of martial arts experience, you are always assured of quality training in a relaxed and friendly and encouraging environment.
