Dojo Floor Sessions
Grey Lynn, Auckland
A Closer Look at Ki Development & Ki Aikido
Turning up on a Friday evening means joining a steady group for focused mind-body training in a supportive setting. The session starts with ki development exercises that emphasise posture, breathing and balance before moving into aikido technique practice. Everyone works at their own pace, with beginners guided through the basics alongside more experienced participants.
The group meets weekly on Friday evenings in Grey Lynn. All ages attend, and the non-competitive format suits people looking for steady practice rather than sport-style competition. Visitors are welcome, so new faces simply arrive and join in.
- Ki breathing and posture drills to build coordination
- Partner-based aikido movements and safe falling practice
- Progressive technique work that develops timing and connection
- Group warm-ups that prepare both body and focus
- Time for questions and individual feedback during the class
- Regular attendance that supports gradual skill improvement
Ki Aikido here stays true to its emphasis on relaxed power and clear intention, giving participants a consistent way to train both mental calm and physical responsiveness.
