If you are looking for a new focus in life, then Aikido could be for you. Aikido is a challenging martial art and offers the chance to stretch yourself both physically and mentally. This Aikido school has good training ethics and a friendly atmosphere with expert tuition from Adoni Pavlakis Sensei with regular visits from guest instructors. Also, there are opportunities to visit other schools for extra training sessions and courses.

I've trained under Shihan for over a year now, it's a welcoming friendly group. Being one of his female students I feel it gives me the control of my uki where I didn't have it at other dojo. Lots of weapons work.
