Classes

“I started with Aikido because I had to have a physical activity instead of PE. The idea of peacefully resolving conflict interested me, but as I evolved, the concepts of attention to detail during class and having fun with your peers outside of class appealed more. No matter who you are, where you want to be, or what you want, Aikido has something to give to you."

"I started in Aikido because I wanted to study a physical art with a deep curriculum and community. I looked at other martial arts, but felt the learning community at Seattle Aikikai was more community-focused and supportive of personal connections and personal growth. I felt it was more about the whole person."
