Aikido
Wednesdays
7-9pm
Sundays
11:30-1:30pm

Founded by Morihei Ueshiba, Aikido is a martial art which focuses on the art of self-defence. Aikido is often translated to ‘The way of unifying life’s energy’, showing the philosophical side of the art. The goal of Aikido is to use your opponent’s momentum to neutralise their attack. An interesting aspect of Aikido is that it does not solely use hand techniques. Aikido uses both Aiki-Ken (Wooden Sword) and Aiki-Jo (Wooden Staff) which are harder to use than traditional weapons showing the principle of extension, centring, and focus.

Shorinji Kempo
Thursday
7-9pm

Healthy Mind, Healthy Body, Self Defence.
Shorinji Kempo is a martial art which focuses on self-defence and spiritual development. It was founded in Japan shortly after world war two. We take inspiration from the philosophies of Japanese and Chinese martial arts as well as Zen Buddhism. Classes typically start with a group warmup and revision of basic techniques, followed by training in pairs. Shorinji Kempo has three groups of technique: Goho (hard technique) involves a wide variety of strikes, blocks, etc., whilst Juho (soft technique) involves joint reversals, releases, restraints, takedowns and throws. Seiho (correcting technique) uses acupressure manipulation of joints and muscles to relieve tension and reduce injury. We also practice seated meditation and practical philosophy. Everyone is welcome to join us, and no martial arts experience is necessary.
For more information, please email edinburghkempo@gmail.com, or visit www.edinburghkempo.com.
