Item Description
Practice the art of peace! You are bidding on a 1 month Aikido Martial Arts Membership for adults or children.
Located in New Orleans’ Mid-City, we offer training in the Japanese martial art of Aikido. We’re committed to helping every student, from beginner to advanced, learn and grow at their own pace. In time, young and old alike can become more fit, more confident, with a greater sense of well-being.
The founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba (O Sensei or ‘Great Teacher’), created the art in the early 20th Century. Having practiced and mastered several martial arts, he came to believe that fighting and endless conflict is never the answer. Rather, peaceful resolution of conflict, without causing harm, is the greater path. So ‘Ai’ (harmony, love, collaboration) ‘Ki’ (power, energy) ‘Do’ (way or path) was created to provide a way of cultivating and practicing the ‘art of peace’.
At NOLA Aikido, we strive each day to live up to O Sensei’s ideal, without discriminating in any way with regard to gender, race, creed, or sexual orientation. We invite everyone to join our community as we practice in a dedicated, safe, and cooperative environment. Because Aikido techniques are purely defensive, we never meet force with force. Instead, we learn to redirect an aggressor’s attack, leading to a peaceful resolution. Size or physical strength is far less a factor in Aikido than it may be in other martial arts; so anyone, large or small, young or old, can practice effectively.
