COMBAT AIKIDO 
KIDS PROGRAM

COMBAT AIKIDO teaches kids valuable techniques while maintaining a fun and non-competitive environment. Self defense, conflict resolution, anti-bullying techniques, stranger awareness and self confidence are emphasized. Students learn to work well with other kids, solve problems, listen and speak with respect. Focus and concentration skills are developed and improved upon. As kids learn these important skills, it enhances other areas of their lives. Many of our students demonstrate improvement at school and with friends & family.

A student manual with dojo etiquette, testing requirements & procedures, etc is available upon enrollment.
