Breathe out as you step into Tenko Unity Aikido, the House of Equanimity.
This is a space to immerse yourself in the philosophy of Aikido and realise your potential; a centre of calm and balance. A refuge where we come together for ideas on how we can find positive alternatives to conflict. An abode where strength and beauty are in harmony. This is a home for all. Welcome.
What is Aikido
Founded by Morihei Ueshiba or “O-Sensei”, Aikido is a martial art that goes beyond self-defence. It is an art for self-development and a way for us to strengthen our body, mind and spirit, on and off the mat.
“Aikido is not a technique to fight with or defeat an enemy. It is the way to harmonise the world and make humanity one family.”
- Morihei Ueshiba, Founder of Aikido
