Mixed Level Aikido

Duration: 90 min; Free; Mixed Level Aikido: HIYA! Begin to learn the fundamentals of aikido, a martial art that includes the art of ukemi, basic footwork, how to attack using your whole body strength, and basic rolling and falling to ensure safety. Learn how to effortlessly bring down anyone with only three ounces of pressure. Training with forms and techniques are necessary for the practice, however the goal of Aikido is for you to work dynamically with a partner to discover the internal feeling that is Aiki.
