Aiki kids
Aikido classes for kids
Children who practice Aikido stand to benefit in many ways – it is an opportunity to regularly put together the essential elements of mutual respect, self-discipline, focus, FUN and harmony.
The controlled practise of Aikido techniques can lead to much more than self-defense – it fosters the development of a martial mindset rooted in respect and diligence.
