Introduction to Aikido Sword Practice class starting Sunday, September 15, 3-4 pm and continuing through the semester on Sundays. Aikido, ‘The Way of Harmony’, is a martial art that teaches participants how to respond to conflict without resorting to force or more conflict. While most of Aikido practice is open-hand, practice with bokken (wooden sword) is a key component of the training. No prior sword experience needed, and the Aikido Club has some extra bokken to loan students for class. Contact Alex at achrist.r@gmail.com if you are interested. Regular Aikido classes will start with an Introduction to Aikido workshop on Saturday, September 21, 3-5 pm and classes continue at that time through the semester.
