Aikido Association Atlanta

The Aikido Association Atlanta teaches Aikido, a modern Japanese martial art that emphasizes harmony and blending with an attack rather than meeting it with force. The dojo offers classes in Adult Aikido and Iaido, a style of Japanese swordsmanship, and also provides classes in Judo and Tai Chi through independent programs. Aikido is described as an art of harmony, and its non-competitive philosophy emphasizes personal growth and mutual respect. By practicing Aikido, one can develop refined coordination and balance, calm under pressure, functional strength and posture, and emotional resilience and empathy.
