The Capalaba Dojo offers a
children's aikido class for the 4 - 12 years bracket on Saturday mornings from
9:00am - 10:00am. Our priority is to provide children with an energy outlet
through structured training sessions.
Aiki-kids is designed for children to have fun and the classes provide
instruction on:
- Rolling exercises that emphasize safety.
- Age appropriate techniques that build towards the adult curriculum.
- The importance of assertion and a differentiation between this and aggression.
- The importance of teaching children respect, and to care for their training
partner.
- The history of Aikido.
The classes are well supervised by adult instructors and students and always
operate with an emphasis on safety. The use of games that operate at both the
individual and team level are employed to emphasize points of training and most
importantly to have fun.
We invite parents to come and watch and if the mood takes them, then they are
welcome to sign up and join with the classes as well.
