Our beginners course is perfect for complete newcomers to Aikido. No prior martial arts experience is required. You’ll have the opportunity to train with others who are just starting out, and make new friends along the way.

Aikido is a traditional Japanese martial art that teaches you how to look after yourself. It develops self-confidence, situational awareness, and the ability to stay calm under pressure.

Regular Aikido training delivers a range of physical and mental benefits and will help you:

• improve your physical coordination and flexibility
• learn how to protect yourself from aggression
• develop greater situational awareness
• manage stressful situations and build your self confidence

The course begins on Tuesday 4th March at Ysgol Gymraeg Caerffili, Pontygwindy Rd, CF83 3HG.

Each session will run from 6pm to 8pm.

The course fee is £120 and includes:

• a new Aikido uniform in your required size
