Redlands Aikikai

A few pictures from our recent weapons workshop. The date for our next weapons workshop will be announced soon!

For 5 years we trained privately in parks, in my garage or re-seeded lawn.

Grateful thanks to those who were able to continue training through difficult times!

We reopened in a public space earlier this year and I am thrilled to announce our first batch of dedicated new students, four of whom recently passed their 6th kyu test!

Sincere budoka visiting or living in the Southern California area are most welcome to come and train with us. Stay posted for upcoming seminars!

We are excited to host this free event, August 26 at 6pm. Space is limited, to register, call Precision in Movement at (909) 747-9347.
