University of Minnesota Aikido Club

University of Minnesota Aikido Club

Aikido-UofMN successfully finished Fall '21 Semester.. Spring starts now! M, 7-9 PM, Sat 10-12. Aikido is a Japanese martial art with roots in Ju Jitsu.

Using body positioning and dynamic motion, an attacker’s energy is redirected into a throw, joint lock, or pin. Emphasis is placed upon the harmonization between attacker and defender to diffuse a conflict peacefully. The U of M Aikido Club is focused on introducing the art of Aikido to the University of Minnesota community and offers year-round practice.
