About Aikido in Sydney
Aikido in Sydney is a dedicated traditional martial arts dojo in Alexandria, a short walk from Redfern Station and the Waterloo Metro, where students of all ages and abilities come to study the Japanese art of aikido. Led by a respected sensei, the school is grounded in the principle of non-resistance, teaching practitioners to neutralise an attacker without relying on size, strength or speed. Long-standing members speak of it as a place for people serious about improving, describing martial arts here as a journey rather than a destination and praising the warmth extended to visitors and travellers alike.
Alongside core aikido, training takes in traditional weapons such as sword and staff, striking elements and practical self-defence, giving students a well-rounded grounding in the art. The dojo welcomes women, men and children, with dedicated programs for younger students, and places clear value on personal growth, discipline and community. For anyone in the inner south seeking an authentic, supportive martial arts school with experienced instruction and a genuine sense of belonging, this Alexandria dojo is a standout choice.
