Weekly classes in the Japanese martial art of Aikido in Chirbury in the Welshpool, Newtown, Churchstoke triangle. Our focus is on optimising how you use your body to maximise your efficiency and power, developing a deep understanding of how your body works and how this power can be used most effectively. Training can help you develop fitness, suppleness, good posture, co-ordination, self-confidence, relaxation, mental calmness and awareness, all in a friendly, non-competitive and non-aggressive environment. Aikido uses throws, joint locks and weapons.
Classes continue after the dates shown here and are also available in Whitton near Knighton in Powys on Monday evenings 19:30 to 21:30. For more details, please see our website. If you have any questions or to book your free taster session, please send us an email: chirburyaikido@whiteoak-aikido.org
Some comments from students:
‘I like everything about aikido especially the way it feels. The teachers and higher grades are exceptionally friendly and helpful.’
‘Training at White Oak Aikido is always exciting. You have to work hard and concentrate but the lessons are always fun.’
‘I’ve found two main benefits from my training. Firstly, there are the physical improvements; I have got more flexibility and stamina since I started training. Second is the mental development; I feel more confident and sharper than I was before coming here.’
