Aikido a Martial Art for Women

Many martial arts are often predominantly practiced by men.  Walk into these class and you will typically see 70% or more men, but it is common to have an Aikido class that is half women.

This more equal split can be attributed to the nature of the martial art and format of the class.  The following items appeals to many men and women.

  • Strength is not important, in Aikido you use the strength of your attacker against them.
  • This is an art for a civilized world, your goal is not to injure people you practice to control attackers.
  • No competition, you are not practicing a sport you are always practicing self defense.
  • Calming feel to class leaves you relaxed and centered.
