Aikido 101 program description:

This course for adults will introduce the fundamentals of the Japanese martial art of Aikido, “The Way of Harmony.”  In a hands-on approach, teachers will provide instruction in the principles of balance, efficiency of movement, falling safely, and practical self-protection techniques.  In a low-stress, supportive atmosphere infused with the joy of practice, students will develop focus and “practice with attention” as a strategy for self-directed learning. Students will learn at their own pace, working with teachers and partners and progressing from static to more dynamic encounters.  No prerequisites.

The program schedule includes Orientation, Fundamentals and Applications. The 30 minute Orientation session precedes the 60 minute Applications class for both section 1 and section 2 participants. All students (section 1 and 2) participate in the Wednesday Fundamentals class.
