Aikido Yoshinkan is an effective form of self defence, suitable for anyone at any age.
Aikido is different from other martial arts because self defence is practiced without intending harm to the attacker. Threats are neutralised with minimum force, and so Aikido techniques require little strength to make them effective. This makes Aikido suitable for anyone to practise, regardless of their size or strength.
The GoRyuKai club was founded and is run by Sensei Malcolm Crawford, 7th Dan Yoshinkan.
Any new student is welcome to our friendly dojo to learn aikido, whether you are a complete beginner, or have trained in aikido or another martial art before.
