How do I get started? If you are new to Shinshin Toitsu Aikido (Aikido with Mind and Body Coordination) or any kind of martial art, please take our 4-Week Beginners Course. This is a good way to take a look at what Shinshin Toitsu Aikido is all about and to see if it is right for you.
Step 1. Please register for the Beginners Course and/or Jissen-kai by
sending us e-mail at info@raleighkiaikido.com. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis! Step
2. All students will be requested to read and sign a Raleigh Ki Aikido Release of Liability Form before participating in the Beginners Course and/or Ki class. The form will be available at the dojo.
How old do I have to be? Raleigh
Ki Aikido is currently accepting students who are 13 years old (junior high) and older. If you are under 18 years old, you must obtain a signature from your parent/guardian on the Release of Liability Form before you can start attending classes.
What should I wear? Aikido techniques involve grabbing the wrists, arms, and shoulders, as well as some
kneeling and rolling on the mat. Loose fitting, durable shirt & sweat pants, or white (bleached or un-bleached) judo/karate
dogi are recommended. Shorts are not recommended as we perform exercises on our knees.
