Aikido School of Central Ohio     

Starting the first Sunday of every month:

Learn a new skill while exercising! Get mentally and physically fit with a martial art whose goal is protection vs. destruction. Learn the gentle (or sometimes not-so-gentle) and honorable art of getting out of harm’s way.

All that is required is a desire to learn and sign a release form.

You’ll learn the basics of:

    * avoiding attacks,

    * balance-enhancing movements,

    * timing practices with a partner,

    * and, of course, some basic Aikido techniques.

NO jerks trying to “test” you. (If you are a jerk, please stay home.)

NO hard rolls or falling required

Plus

The number of free classes you take can be applied to the requirements for testing for the first rank (6th “kyu”)

While it is not required to pre-register, if you call or email our school and leave your name, we’ll guarantee a spot for you
