Children’s Aikido

Ikazuchi Dojo’s Aikido program for children focuses on development in the following areas:

Physical:

  • Balance
  • Coordination
  • Posture
  • Body awareness

Mental:

  • Self-discipline
  • Focus
  • Spatial and situational awareness
  • Cooperative learning skills

Technical:

  • Escapes and releases from grabs
  • Ukemi (defensive falling and rolling)
  • Basic defensive throws
  • Basics of self-defense strategy

Students in the children’s program will also have the opportunity to participate in dojo workshops and other special events held throughout the year. They can also supplement their training by scheduling private training sessions with one of our black belt instructors.
