AIKIDO INTRO

Tuesdays, 4:00-4:45p.m., ages 5-7

An age appropriate Aikido class that will engage this delightful age group.

Teachers work with these children so that they can go from fast action to stillness quickly and respectfully when they “sit like a rock” or “stand like a tree.”

The 45-minute class focuses on gross motor skills, peaceful principles of cooperative coexistence, and of course, having fun.

Price includes up to 3 classes per week.

Children learn to get in a safe place, remain calm, blend with the attacker's energy, and not rely on kicking or punching to stay safe. Aikido controls attacks with throws, pins, and centrifugal force. We roll safely away from harm.

Children become self confident through practices that develop balance, footwork, coordination, safe falling and rolling. They learn to engage their whole body to stay alert and safe.
