The Aikido for Beginners Course continues for 1 calendar month, meeting twice a week from 6:30 to 7:15 p.m. on Wednesdays and Fridays. The course officially starts on the first Wednesday of each month, but students can join this course at any time.
The Beginners Course is recommended as a structured introduction
to Aikido, but is not a prerequisite to regular training; beginners may
join the dojo and train in the regular classes from the beginning if
they so prefer.
An Aikido gi is not required, but wearing loose,
long-sleeved clothing is recommended. Also, leave watches, jewelry and
other accessories that may hook on yourself or others at home.
Plan to arrive around 6:15 to 6:20 p.m. to change, warm up, etc.
Beginners may repeat the course until they feel ready to join the regular
classes.
