Cardiff Ki Aikido

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoy our lessons at Cardiff Ki-Aikido. The Dojo is friendly, relaxed and welcoming.

I thoroughly enjoy Sensei Steve’s classes. It helped me to build up fitness I lost after having had a flu virus and it helped me build up confidence too. It is a very friendly class and unlike judo or karate, you are taught to treat everyone with respect and kindness. Ki aikido is a martial art for the 21st century. I would recommend this class to everyone.

I have been practicing aikido at this club for almost five years.I started as a way to blow off steam from a stressful job. Having practised an aggressive martial art before, I expected more of the same, but found a graceful calm that spoke to me. I found the visualisation techniques useful in managing my responses in challenging meetings, and I found increased mobility and strength in a damaged shoulder joint.During COVID, being unable to practice at the club really made it clear to me the benefits it gives me in clarity of thought and meditated response.
