Children (6 to 11 years old) learn aikido in order to develop physical, mental and intellectual abilities, so that they are able to face challenges and attacks with a calm manner and with success.
In the lessons we follow a pedagogical method adjusted to children, who with a playful way discover and cultivate further self-defence competences: children develop capacities for coordinated body movement, and train in awareness, readiness (alertness), maintaining balance and learn to the value of cooperation to achieve benevolent goals and targets.
The learning approach focus on the individual and the benefits from learning aikido are numerous: children learn and cultivate not only natural talents and inclinations but also their intelligence.
The kids class is held on Saturday (see Our School > Timetable).
