Weapons
South Austin Aikido offers traditional weapons classes in the bokken (Japanese wooden sword) and the jo (short staff). The training consists of individual moves, as well as partner practices. The moments emphasize breathing, balance, timing, and blending with the actions of your partner. Weapons training is complementary to the empty hand techniques of Aikido.  This class is open to all levels.
