"Lil'Dragons" (children aged 4 to 8 years) meets Thursdays from 4:30 to 5:30 and Sundays from 11:30 to 12:30. The cost is $50 for 1 day a week and $70 for 2 days a week per month, with no contracts.   Our program introduces children to the fundamentals of aikido through imaginative play, and games. Exercises include centering, learning how to properly fall and roll, with a focus on footwork, and balancing. Children practice aikido techniques of basic self-defense, and martial skills like striking, kicking, and learning how to blend with attack.   There is no competition with our Aikido program. Many styles of martial arts practice, have sparing and completive trophy oriented matches. The philosophy here at Aikido Seishinkan Dojo is to compete with or better ones self, and the trophy's are in ones own heart.   This type of training helps to keep children's life energy's in tact as well as develop correct mind and body coordination.   Our instructors are David Goldberg Sensei, 4th degree black belt and chief instructor of Aikido Seishinkan dojo. Daniel Grant one of Sensei's senior students leads the Sunday class. Sensei and Dan's children practice in the class, and are joined by parent volunteers.   You are welcome to come with your children to observe a class. As well we invite you to have your children participate in in two free classes to better realize the benefits for both you and your child.
