Fantastic experience: I’ve spent many years training in Koshinkai Aikido. Initially with David Lynch and now with Justin Lewis and I love it with a passion. I started Aikido after studying Taekwondo for 9 years and finding that my joints were just not up to high impact pursuits anymore. Additionally, something was just missing, I wanted more out of my martial arts. In Koshinkai Aikido I found the right balance of mental, spiritual and physical training to satisfy this need. Aikido can be practised by any age group and the techniques learnt can be readily applied to self defence in the real world without years of repetitive practice. In modern parlance, you hit the ground running. Aikido is non-competitive and very inclusive but at the same time incredibly effective. If you find me saying that to be odd or counter intuitive then come along to watch a training session and see what I mean. I’ve found Aikido life changing. I like to think that you will too.

Fantastic experience: Really amazing dojo and instruction - I'm loving it. The quality of instruction is highly personalised, careful, and expert. The vibe is also moves in a thoughtful way through reflective calm moments to begin then through to energising and engaging. Unlike some of the bigger mcdojos out there, this place is genuinely interested in developing a life-long practice of Aikido and investing in its practitioners. I highly recommend this dojo to anyone interested in learning Aikido safely and thoroughly.
