Children's classes commencing Now

The Children’s classes are fun and energetic. These classes emphasise the forms and practical understanding of aikido principles of self defence, harmonising with others, working together and building self confidence and co-ordination. Unlike senior practice, only basic forms of Aikido are taught. Harmful and dangerous forms of Aikido are avoided in favour of flowing, learning with your partner, co-operation and improving fitness and health with this dynamic program.

The children learn how to stay safe and deal with aggressors by controlling the attacker (not defeating them). They also practise rolling and tumbling to develop physical balance and flexibility of movement

Parents are encouraged to stay and watch the classes. This lets the parents see what we are doing and how the children are developing their physical coordination, skill and technique throughout their training.

We Do Not ...... teach to punch or kick another child as a way of settling a dispute.

Many parents want their young children to learn techniques of self protection so that they will be more self confident, self reliant and better able to deal with ever present bullying at school. Aikido teaches effective collaborative methods of controlling aggressive behaviour that gives your child a way to preserve their integrity and stay
