"The purpose of training is to tighten up the slack, toughen the body, and polish the spirit."
Morihei Ueshiba, Founder of Aikido
Resilience.
Bend, don't break.
Aikido supports overall fitness, strengthens the body, and develops focus and discipline. More than that, however, Aikido is a path to understand who you are and how you relate to others and to situations around you. It is a way to become strong, yet compassionate, take your place in the world while working with others, and to deal with situations in your life openly and confidently. It is a way to find peace both inside and out.
