Aikido Club

Welcome to the University of Calgary Aikido club. Aikido is a modern Japanese martial art based on the principle of non-conflict. It is a truly holistic practice combining physical techniques with mental and spiritual discipline. In Aikido, one uses flowing, circular movements to blend with an opponent’s attack and redirect the attack into a throw or immobilization, bringing the conflict to a peaceful resolution. Aikido techniques do not depend on physical strength and there is no competition. Training is done in a cooperative manner, allowing students of different levels to practice together. Aikido helps develop one’s flexibility, stability, and coordination of body and mind.

Cost Includes: The cost of this program allows members to train and receive instruction during the listed club times.

Jiu Jitsu Club

Our association, Jitsu Canada, is committed to providing high quality and enjoyable instruction to anyone who wishes to learn. Although we recognize the benefits of competitive sports, competition is not an aspect of our system. The coaching methods used during sessions emphasize co-operation amongst participants. Jiu Jitsu offers an enjoyable atmosphere for participants to achieve a higher fitness level while gaining valuable self defense skills. Jiu Jitsu can be used by anyone irrespective of strength, weight or gender. Training is tailored to the individual ability of the participant and a friendly, ‘club’ type atmosphere is maintained at all sessions. New students do not need a high standard of physical fitness or flexibility to begin, as participants will find their endurance, strength, flexibility and speed all improve as training progresses. Jiu Jitsu is also great fun to learn and provides an opportunity for people to meet and socialize and relieve stress
