Come to Aikido and get ready for some fun!

Beginners are always welcome.

Anyone can enjoy our style of Aikido. We are low-​impact and focused on safety as you get one-​on-​one training in a relaxed atmosphere with other adults. Aikido is great for self-​defense, exercise, and developing self-​confidence.

Classes are held Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 7:45 — 9:15.

Best of all, the first class is free!
