About this gym
Aikido of Honolulu is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) non-profit dojo offering instruction in Aikido, "the way of harmonizing energy," through partner-based practice without competitive contests. Practitioners develop physical and mental skills through flowing, spherical movements that redirect an attacker's energy rather than meeting force with force, making the art accessible across ages and abilities. All instructors are local volunteers who hold full-time jobs elsewhere, which keeps membership fees low; revenues support facility maintenance and Aikido-related activities. The dojo offers separate class tracks for adults (18+) and juniors (ages 6-17).
