Viewing a Class
Everyone is welcome to come and watch Aikido, Weapons, or Iaido classes. Zazen and Harai are private meditation classes for members only. More information on the different types of classes offered can be found on the Class Descriptions page.

Just inside the front door to the right is a bench. Please do not step onto the mat.
Trying Aikido – First Class
