national origin. All can enjoy and improve their health and fitness by
attending regular and well-run classes. The formal and more spiritual
aspect of Aikido appeals to some, the physical side to others. Its full
and natural body movement has aerobic benefits for all. When practiced
regularly it will assist in developing a fitter, suppler and stronger body
with improved flexibility, reflexes and reactions.

AIKIDO
is essentially non-violent, encourages harmony of Mind, Body &
Spirit and the avoidance of confrontation. Force is never opposed by
force. Resolving a conflict peacefully is better for all concerned and
students soon learn how to improve their self-awareness, and with the
techniques learnt, also grow in self-confidence. In this Aikido teaches
self-defence.

today’s fastest growing recreational activity with Japanese origins that
go back many centuries. Aikido as practised today includes joint locking

AIKIDO
principles are based on exploiting the weaknesses of an opponent.
Joints, posture, the mind can all be vulnerable areas when attacked or
challenged. In essence Aikido is turning an opponents' power against
themselves by using the exact degree of control required to neutralise
their energy without inflicting undue harm.
