Asahi Dojo

Description

Established in 2000, Asahikan Dojo focuses on helping practitioners obtain the tools needed to function as a true martial artist, on and off the mat. We explore both the martial and the art sides of training. Asahi is the Japanese word for the morning rising sun. We believe that each day holds new lessons, new challenges, new encounters and new paths to follow - making our learning endless. These classes demonstrate traditional Japanese aikido and jujutsu techniques that have been in existence since before the introduction of formal karate practices. Classes include techniques such as takedowns, hip throws, strikes, chokes, sweeps, joint locks, use of weapons and some minor ground work which allows enthusiasts to practice in a controlled environment without fear of injuries. The art of falling or ukemi is included in every class. This enables practitioners the opportunity to develop the skills required to protect themselves in the event balance is lost and a fall is inevitable. This also creates a safe training environment for all participants. We have class times seven days a week - day, evening and weekend classes for men, women, youth and children. Please see our current schedule. We also publish a monthly newsletter - Aikido Now.
