Aikido is a perfect martial art for women.

In many other martial arts strength is required, however, Aikido relies on technique, using the attackers weight and momentum against them by redirecting the force of their attack back on them. Aikido does not require strength to subdue an attacker. With good basics will come effortless defence!

Within Shinko Aikido you are taught REAL and EFFECTIVE Aikido. While we keep the traditions of the martial art in focus, it is important that you (The Student) walk out of every class feeling positive that you are learning how to defend yourself and gain the confidence to deter any 'would be' attacker should you need to.
