Aikido means 'way of harmony with the universe’ and the attackers' energy is redirected to bring it to a safe conclusion for both the attacker and defender. Lessons consist of stretching and warm up exercises, Ki development, rolling techniques and Aikido self-defence. All aspects of training are geared towards practical self-defence by developing better and finer control and balance between mind and body. Speed, accuracy and technique are valued over physical strength meaning everyone can get involved and safe practice is the number one priority.
