​Aikido/Systema Hybrid​

These classes explore the incredible depth of Systema's principles: posture, balance, relaxation, and breathwork...which combine incredibly well with the techniques and same principles in Aikido. Classes include ground work, knife work, wall work, striking, receiving strikes,  kicks, and overall freedom of movement. This class adds perspective on modern day attacks or non-traditional situations. There is emphasis on falling safely, and students training in a healthy way in alignment with their own body's abilities.
