About Aikido

Aikido is "trans-martial," meaning that it's also a complete path of personal mastery, and an embodied practice for working with ever-changing conditions, conflict, and stress. There’s no better or more complete way to stay fit in body and mind, and become a more fully developed person in harmony with life.

In a typical practice, you'll learn to get centered, blend into attack, flow with it, and apply yourself with power, sense, and grace. 

Aikido was founded by Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969), known to students of Aikido as "O-Sensei." O-Sensei developed Aikido as an expression of his inspiration — that martial arts can be a path that affirms life and cultivates connection.
