Teen Aikido

Event Details

Lakeshore Aikido Club, 2736 Central St, Evanston, IL, 60201

TEEN AIKIDO Ages 12–16

Movement • Martial Skills • Confidence • Focus

A Japanese martial art without competition that teaches to manage force rather than meet force with force, to train with partners rather than against opponents, develop calmness while someone is physically challenging us. 

Learn movement, falling, throws, controls, sword and staff.

More than learning how to fight— we learn how to move, respond, and remain composed when challenged.

Taught by Antonio Terrone, PhD, Northwestern University professor and 5th-degree Aikido black belt with more than 40 years of martial-arts experience.
