Louisville Aikikai encourages all who are interested in Aikido to visit the dojo and observe classes. Students may invite visitors, and prospective students are always welcomed to observe and participate in classes.
In order to keep focus on the class and avoid potentially dangerous distractions, we ask that visitors remove shoes, sit, and watch class quietly without cell phones, pagers, food, or drink.
Prospective students are welcome to participate in classes after completing a liability waiver. Students must be at least 15 years old to practice, unless special permission is given by the dojo manager.
Beginning students are expected to attend at least 10 of the Monday/Wednesday night beginner classes before trying other classes.
Students must be at least 15 years old to practice unless special permission is given by the dojo manager.
