ADULT AIKIDO

In the Adult Aikido Program at TERAKOYA DOJO, there are students ranging across all ages and backgrounds. Some come for the self-defense aspect, some for the health and exercise benefits. Or perhaps the social/community activism, the ethical philosophy of the art, the spiritual dimension, or simply for the pure enjoyment of the harmonious movement itself. Most often it is a combination of these and perhaps more. The common element is that all are welcome - and all are encouraged and supported by the dojo to put forth their best and most sincere effort. They may find that what they put into it, they receive many times over - in return.

Everyone trains and progresses at their own pace. Beginners are gently paired with various experienced students who introduce them to Aikido on a one-on-one basis - under the supervision of the class instructor. Partners are rotated within each class ensuring a well rounded experience.

The path of Aikido is not without its challenges. But it is the quality of how we greet these challenges that defines our growth - not just as Aikido practitioners, but as human beings as well. At TERAKOYA DOJO we travel this path together, encouraging and supporting each other along the way.
