Benefits of Aikido
What is Aikido?
Physical and Psychological benefits
During Aikido study, we learn to relax and move from the center of the body. We use Mind/Body coordination to develop such qualities as timing and relaxation.
Knowing how to relax can have many benefits in one's business and personal life, weather one is giving a presentation or facing an upset client. Learning this type of self control can help us to develop self confidence in difficult situations.
We learn to face rather than to back off from conflict. Facing conflict develops self confidence as well as more options for self-defense.
Aikido is for the modern world
Aikido techniques can be used in real-life situations that do not require extensive physical force. Aikido can be used when defending against multiple attackers. You do not have to be strong or large to be effective in Aikido.
Aikido is for everyone!
There are no weight classes in aikido. Men and women practice together and we work collaboratively to develop our skills and have fun. In Aikido, we compare our progress with our selves rather than each other. Rarely is someone an Aikido prodigy from the start, everyone works to develop their skills. Many claim to develop important insights into their lives by practicing Aikido because of overcoming obstacles.
