Aikido

Welcome to Aikido Shinryukan Otago, the premier Aikido dojo located in the heart of Dunedin. Our dojo proudly represents the Aikido Shinryukan lineage in New Zealand, adhering to the teachings and technical guidance of Nobuo Takase Shihan, a respected practitioner affiliated with the prominent Hombu Dojo in Japan. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced martial artist, our doors are open for everyone eager to learn.

Our training sessions are held every Tuesday and Thursday from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM, providing a welcoming atmosphere where individuals can develop their Aikido skills, enhance their physical fitness, and foster personal growth. The essence of Aikido lies in harmony and the ability to blend with an opponent’s energy rather than confronting it head-on, making it an ideal practice for those seeking a balanced approach to self-defense and mental wellness.

We offer comprehensive training programs that cater to various skill levels. Newcomers will find guidance in our beginner classes, where foundational techniques are taught in a supportive environment. Additionally, our experienced instructors are dedicated to ensuring safe and effective training, making your journey in Aikido both enjoyable and fulfilling.

Located at 5 Wanaka Street, Ravensbourne, Dunedin 9022, our dojo not only focuses on physical training but also serves as a community hub for like-minded individuals passionate about martial arts. Stay connected with us through our Facebook page for updates on events and news related to our dojo.

Join us today to embark on a transformative journey through the art of Aikido, where you can cultivate strength, discipline, and a sense of community while navigating the path of personal development.
