Orange County Ki Society [S]

We teach the Japanese martial art of Aikido to children. Aikido training is not competitive. Our emphasis is on balance, focus, calmness and having a positive attitude. Students learn to fall safely as well as the movements of Aikido. Class involves group exercises, solo exercises games as well as meditation. We have classes suitable for students ages 4 to 18. The structure of the classes includes formal etiquette and discipline including bowing and calling the teacher sensei. We suggest visiting a class to understand our approach to helping children develop positive habits.
