Tampa Aikido

鍛波 Tampa Aikido ready to forge waves in Phoenix!

🚨 Last call for Early Bird 🐥 - ends TODAY!

Friendly nudge to get registered for Hiroshi Ikeda Shihan's seminar before rates go up after today.

If you trained with Tres Hofmeister Shihan when he was here, this is his instructor from Boulder, CO. Ikeda Shihan travels around the US and internationally teaching seminars … it’s a really special opportunity to have him here at our dojo. More about Ikeda Shihan here: https://www.hiroshi-ikeda.com/about

We’ve already got several out-of-town Aikidoka registered, so this is also a great chance to train with people you don’t normally get to share the mat with 🥋

All levels welcome, come get on the mat!

We’re proud to share that Tampa Aikido instructor Sensei Todd Jones will be presenting a “No Sweat” Self-Defense seminar tomorrow at the Rotary Club of Tampa.

Drawing on years of experience in Aikido and personal safety training, Todd will be focusing on practical self-defense concepts such as awareness, balance, conflict avoidance, and staying calm under pressure—principles at the heart of our practice.

It’s always great to see Aikido shared with the broader community in meaningful, real-world ways.

🕛 Begins at 12:00 PM (arrive by 11:45 AM)
