Aikido has many different blends, movements, and techniques — all of which still use the original Japanese names — these can be often confusing to even more experienced aikidoka.  In order to assist our members to learn some of the basics, a downloadable members’ handbook is attached below.  It includes various information about aikido and the Center, including:

• Dojo etiquette
• Terminology (technique, blends, Japanese greetings)
• Testing requirements (Adults and Kids)

The handbook is a living document, representing the ongoing needs of the Aikido community of our dojo.
