What do we offer?

Aikido St.Pete offers dynamic classes for adults and kids ages 5-100, our classes are taught by the chief instructor Matthew Addison who is a 2nd-degree black belt (Nidan) and has been teaching Aikido for 10 years.
our kid's and adult classes are created around the philosophy of how to live our lives in harmony with the world, not only covering the basics of self-defense but utilizing unique principles only found in Aikido, each kid's/adult class instills a lifelong curiosity for self-discovery, opportunities to advance in rank, under the largest Aikido federation in America *USAF,  we offer a guarantee that you and your children learn, retain new knowledge, build strength mentally and physically and have fun!
I can only tell you so much of what we offer at the dojo without repeating myself, but no matter how good I articulate, it will never compare to the never-ending lifetime skills your child or yourself will gain from the practice of Aikido.
