Joining The Dojo
About Joining The Dojo...

The first step is to give us a call, email us or visit us at the dojo during a scheduled class. Visitors are welcome, and we require all prospective members come to the dojo and watch a class before applying for membership.

One thing you will not experience at the dojo is pressure to join, "special offers" or any kind of sales tactics. We encourage serious, self-motivated students who genuinely want to improve themselves and their martial skills through the practice of Aikido.

After you watch a class, we can schedule your first class, which will be a one-on-one orientation with an instructor to help you get off to a good start in a low-pressure way. After that we suggest you stick to the basics classes until you are dcompfortable with the falls. You may also come to the mixed level classes right from the start if you want.

The way aikido is taught, you can practice along with intermediate and advanced students right from the beginning, and the speed and complexity of the techniques can be adjusted to your level. As you advance, you will gradually increase the intensity of your workout as your body strengthens and your flexibilty and coordination improve.

Affordable Monthly dues are settled on the first of each month for that month either by electronic check (preferred) or major credit card. There are no long term contracts, membership is month-to-month.

Quality cotton uniforms are available for purchase at the dojo.
