What are the criteria for joining your dojo?

Before joining, we’d like to meet you in person, hear about your goals, and explore how our training can support them. You'll also have the chance to participate in an introductory class, where you can experience the training firsthand and decide if it's something you'd like to pursue.

Do the same criteria apply to youth/kids classes?

Yes, the same criteria apply to youth enrollment. Please note our youth classes are intended for students ages 9 & up.

How often can I train when I join?

Adults: During your first three months, you'll be in the Intro Level Group, training twice a week. Afterward, you'll have access to all regular classes as scheduled.
Youth: Classes are held once or twice a week.

Do I have to commit to all classes after joining?

We emphasize dedication to training for steady progress. We recommend committing to the class schedule for consistent development.

Do you teach weapons?

Yes, in addition to unarmed techniques (aiki-tai jutsu), we teach weapons techniques with the wooden staff (aiki-jo) and wooden sword (aiki-ken). Initially, you can use the dojo’s jo and bokken. As you progress, we recommend purchasing your own set through our dojo.
Please note that there is no weapons training included in the youth class program at the beginning.

Is there literature to complement my training?

As a supplemental study guide, we recommend "Explore Aikido" volumes 1, 2, 3 by Michael Jacyna, our dojo's chief instructor. You can find these books in the Aikido Books section on our website.

How much is the membership fee?

Our adult membership starts at $145 per month and includes two to four classes per week. Kids/youth membership is $85 per month, with one class per week included.

Visitors mat fee

Our dojo’s mat fee is $25 per class and applies to visiting Aikido practitioners from out of town. If you plan on visiting Los Angeles and dropping in to train with us, please let us know in advance.
