Kids and Family Aikido Classes

These classes are open to children ages 6 - 13. Children 6 - 7 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Parents and guardians practice for FREE! Those older than 13 may join the adult class.

In this class, you will learn basic aikido techniques and principles. Instead of learning to kick and strike, you will learn how to defend yourself using the “attacker’s” energy to throw or pin them. You will develop the basic physical and mental skills necessary to learn aikido through regular exercises, aikido techniques, and interactive games.

The Instructors

Each class will have at least 2 instructors and will be led by Jennifer Miyashiro and/or Amy James. Both have practiced aikido for a long time with ASBK. They have experience teaching adult and youth aikido classes and are educators outside of the dojo.
