“Your spirit is the true shield.”
– Morihei Ueshiba, Founder of Aikido
Aikido is a defensive, non-competitive Japanese martial art that uses the energy of an oncoming attack and circles it back onto the attacker. Aikido is centered around the goal of achieving peace and harmony over violence. Conflict is neutralized by re-directing an attack towards a resolution in which no one is harmed. It does not rely on strength nor body size to be effective, instead, it focuses on body movement, joint locks, connection and throws to defuse conflict.
Aikido Shugyo Dojo is a non-profit Aikido club that has been a centre for Aikido training in Toronto’s east end since 1985. Our Dojo practices both open-handed and Aikido weapons techniques for adults and children.
