Why Study Aikido?
Aikido, a harmonious blend of martial arts, has gained international recognition for its defensive prowess and as a path to mental and physical well-being. Founded by Morihei Ueshiba at the turn of the 20th century, Aikido's philosophy transcends mere self-defense—it's an art of peace and harmony that utilizes an opponent's energy against them.
