Training for Kids

Although adults might practise Aikido to develop inner peace, relaxation, or self-defence, most children don't even think about these concepts. So why is Aikido a good idea for kids? Aikido teaches kids calmness. Of course, kids shouldn't be calm all the time. Aikido gives them the choice. If they need to sit still at school,or concentrate on homework, or focus during sport, Aikido shows them exactly how to do that. The techniques and ki testing we do teach them correct calmness. This is entirely different from keeping their emotions bottled up. Aikido calmness feels good.

ABOUT AIKI KIDS

Aikido helps kids at school. By training, kids develop calm, clear minds. As a result, they absorb knowledge easier, and think with greater clarity. Aikido is about developing the full human potential, and school is one of the most important places for this potential to be realised. Aikido teaches kids practical self-defence. Aikido does not require athletic talent. In fact, athletic prowess can sometimes get in the way. Aikido works for little people, since it does not rely on size, or speed, or weight.
Students from the Advanced Junior class are encouraged to participate and instruct in the beginners classes. At present we have a number of Advanced students instructing the Beginners class. This continues the dojo's philosophy of recognising it's part in the overall development of the students as individuals with self confidence, leadership abilities and a constructive care for others.

Please note that prices can be discussed where special circumstances exist.

Beginners Ages: Students must be at school AND at least 5 years old, this ensures that they, and their partners, gain the most from the training.
