The Riai Aikido Learning Centre is a permanent dojo where mats are down all the time. We offer specialised classes for different ranks/abilities. There are regular seminars and Aiki labs to explore aspects of Aikido. The teaching staff at the Riai Aikido Learning Centre is one of the most experienced in New Zealand with over 75 years of combined experience in Aikido.
We offer classes 3 days a week with children’s classes on Mondays 5–6pm. Visitors are encouraged to come in and watch a class and ask questions of any instructors or students.
The Riai Aikido Learning Centre is a dojo where students learn at their own pace. We look at Second Level Training and explore the communication of energy in waza or techniques. Students learning at the Riai Aikido Learning Centre have the option of completing a learning-based tool that shows what is the best learning style for them, enabling the teacher to match appropriate learning styles to individual students.
Enrolment for Beginners is open at any time.
We invite you to join us for 6 free lessons over 2 weeks. No joining fee. No long-term contract. After the first two weeks, each class costs only $18. Just turn up to any class, no need to book.
