WELCOME

Thank you for visiting Glendale Aikikai online.

Glendale Aikikai is a community-based dojo, through the auspices of Glendale Parks and Recreation, dedicated to the training and education of Aikido.

AIKIDO is a Japanese martial art that teaches practical techniques and personal development by focusing mind, body and spirit attained through honest training. In Aikido, the goal is self-development. There are no competitions and strong emphasis is placed upon practicing in a spirit of cooperation.

We welcome you to stop by and observe our class.
