We welcome anyone who respects the ethos of our club and the traditions of Aikido to train with us.  Our style is Aikikai, but we welcome people with experience in other styles.  We aim to practise a soft style of Aikido while maintaining a martial spirit. Our classes are suitable for anyone over 16. There is no maximum age. We do not have a children's class. 

Wokingham Aikido Club is a not-for-profit club organisation, whose aim is to promote fitness through the practice of Aikido.
