The Aikido Academy teaches the art of Nihon Goshin Aikido, a complete martial art and self-defense program for the entire family. It consists of throws, joint locks, nerve pressure points, blocks, strikes, weaponry, and more. The word Aikido means “the way in harmony with the spirit.” Simply put — by using an attackers weight and momentum while applying proven techniques, a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a larger, stronger adversary.
Are you looking for the best in self-defense instruction? Do you want to learn an authentic martial art in a positive, safe, and competition-free environment? Are you looking for mature, well-educated and experienced instructors? Do you want a professional, high-quality program for you and your family? If so, the Aikido Academy of Self-Defense is what you’re looking for.
There are no tournaments or competitions in Nihon Goshin Aikido. Instead, we emphasize the physical (balance, coordination, and fitness), the mental (thoughtful positive reaction and response), and the emotional development (stress reduction, temperate behavior, and peace of mind) as well as street effectiveness. Our training methods are effective, realistic, and proven to work. They are flexible, adaptable to each situation, and simple — anyone can do it — no strength requied. Youth classes, Adult classes, Women’s Assertiveness and Self-Protection classes, and Personal Security courses are just a few of our services. We welcome you to our website and invite you to view our program information, instructor biographies, academy locations and more.
