The Aikido School of Athens in Jefferson offers self defense training for both children and adults. Takama Hara (all encompassing universe) describes the philosophy behind our style of Aikido. We believe in exploring all facets of Aikido and other arts to develop a more rounded philosophy. Takama Hara Aikido combines using an attacker’s energy against them by blending with their attack, taisabaki(body movement), chokes and wristlocks of Jujutsu, throws and sweeps of Judo, kicks, strikes and blocks of Karate and Kenpo, and weapon forms of Iaido and Kali/Escrima
Takama Hara Aikido covers everything from defenses off chokes and grips to dealing with multiple attackers and attackers with weapons. We also explore the many sword and staff kata related to open hand techniques making it the best martial arts instruction in Jefferson.
