At Alamo Area Aikikai, we feel that Aikido is for everyone. We believe in high quality Aikido instruction in a safe and inclusive environment. As members, students can invest in a traditional martial practice that offers a non-violent form of conflict resolution. While the focus is Traditional Aikido instruction, we also provide workshops and classes designed for specific populations, including lower impact and adaptive classes for people with disabilities. We include skill building to maintain functional fitness, including injury prevention from falls and conditioning to improve overall mobility. Our instructors are certified with the United States Aikido Federation (USAF). All kyu rank acquired is via the USAF and is only recognized by the USAF. Dan ranks are registered at Aikido World Headquarters, Hombu Dojo in Tokyo, Japan. Instructors and students are encouraged to continue enriching their own practice and skill sets by attending regional seminars and camps, especially those led by USAF Technical Commitee Shihan or other USAF Instructors. All affiliations are welcome for regular practice and seminar attendance but promotions are subject to review by USAF standards.
