Aikido is a nonviolent Japanese Budo, or martial way, which enriches the life of the participant by providing tools for coping with daily challenges. It builds self-confidence, and helps develop skills in stress management and conflict resolution. This class will be geared primarily toward beginners, but students of any level and physical ability are welcome to attend. Loose fitting clothing which covers arms and legs or a training uniform (preferably a judo gi) is recommended.

Classes are offered through the City of Brentwood's Recreation Department under the direction of Tom Hapiuk-Sensei, Dojo-cho. Classes are held Monday nights at the Edna Hill Middle School Exercise Room. Please use the links below for schedule of classes and registration details.
