Children ages 8 and up benefit from Aikido training! Shinjinkai's Youth Aikido students gain:

Confidence

Positive self-image

Enhanced school performance

Increased regard for others

Cooperation

Discipline

Can-do attitude

Physical benefits include flexibility, agility, balance, stamina, and strength. Training is fun and teaches conflict resolution and self-defense skills for life.

Shinjinkai Youth Aikido students are led through exercises, techniques, and fun activities that develop their minds and bodies. Older children (generally ages 11-15) are challenged with more intensive instruction to prepare them for participation in our adult classes. Our experienced Youth Aikido instructors keep the atmosphere supportive and fun.
