Calgary Aikikai
Since 1980, Calgary Aikikai has trained hundreds of students in this martial art that is both a practical self-defence and form of creative movement. We believe that the best way to learn is through enjoyable and spirited practice, with an emphasis on traditional techniques.

Class starts at 10am, Saturday, September 9th.
Please be sure to arrive a few minutes early to get back in the swing of things. Welcome back!
Hello Parents! It’s been too long but our aikido programme for children is starting up again! We are planning a small session for the months of April to June. This three month session will once again be headed up by our team of black belt instructors and will continue to run in the same format and times as before. We are hoping that this interests you and your kids and hope that you have been safe and healthy over the last two years.
Come and try the amazing martial art of Aikido! In these women-only nine hours of introduction, you will learn how to move your body in a way that emphasises self-defence by blending with an attacker’s motion, resolving aggression in a way that creates harmony. Aikido, the “Art of Peace,” is non-competitive and welcomes all who are interested.
