Welcome to our Website
Our practice focuses on movement from the center in a spiraling and flowing manner, emphasizing the need to blend with the attacker to provide the energy for the technique. We strive to provide an environment that is both safe and enjoyable to all who wish to join us on our journey.
If you would like to begin training with us, or if you have any questions regarding our Aikido community, please contact Jay Lindholm or stop by and visit. We would be happy to answer any questions you may have as well as share our aikido experiences with you.

This past Sunday we had two tests with Chris Weber testing for Gokyu and Gilbert Hughes testing for Nikyu.
Chris got to go first and did a fabulous job of moving and bending his knees. His posture was good and he easily handled all of the required techniques, plus plenty of extra ones. His randori was off of the charts as he used the entire mat and kept all of his ukes spread throughout the exercise. Great job Chris on a great test!!
Then Gilbert came next, moving very well through the kyu test. Though he did get a little tired, his energy and pace of the test was very good. Gilbert did such a good job with all of the techniques that we added tanto dori for good measure and he did very well with the take-aways. Great job Gilbert and keep up the good work!!
Following the kyu tests we went over to PeiWei for dinner and celebration where we all enjoyed plenty of good food and conversation. Thanks to everyone for a successful kyu test Sunday and special thanks to the many ukes during the kyu tests. |
