An article about our suburban camps, summer schools and camps appeared in the magazine Archa, published by the Czech Council for Children and Youth. You can read it in full here.
It seems that we are starting a new tradition – this was our second sleepover in the dojo and it was a great success again!
We are very happy to organize trainings for teachers of the Czech Aikido Federation. It is an opportunity to share our way of teaching Aikido with other Czech clubs and also to get inspiration from their work. At the same time, these meetings broaden the pedagogical and human horizons of our young teachers. And also we can all practice together.
T-shirts only for aikidists!?! In our club we have created (so far) 16 different designs of aikido t-shirts – funny, with inscriptions, calligraphy, typography! There are prints purely for the club and also just about aikido. And they can be printed on t-shirts, sweatshirts, tank tops or pillows… all sizes. Read on!
This interview with Franck Noel is a very special and information-rich event! Franck talks about his beginnings, his stay in Japan and especially what he thinks about Aikido and its teaching. Fluent narration, a lifetime of experience and also gentle jokes.
These photos are more art than documentary. Take a good look, they can tell you a lot about aikido!Take a good look, these pictures can tell you a lot about Aikido!
Aikido is also work in the vineyard, we agreed with our youngsters. One Saturday in October, we enjoyed the fresh air while picking grapes on the hill above Žernoseky, where Bogdan Trojak has a vineyard and we sometimes help him out.
We woke up early in the morning and arrived at the place in the morning fog. We couldn’t see even a few meters, almost by touch we were picking and cutting the tassels, our fingers wet from the cold dew.
We did two demos at two festivals that weekend! This one was on Saturday at the very spicy Asia & Chilli Fest at the Exhibition Grounds.
Exercising in the fresh air, friends, great food,… and because of these extra bonuses, we enjoy aikido so much.
For us the Akimatsuri festival means meeting friends, lots of good Japanese food and culture… and also an aikido demonstration that we have to prepare and perform.
“I would say that the Aikido Marathon brought me a beautiful and unforgettable experience, a unique exploration of how fatigue affects me – and a huge surprise, because the training sessions and the unique atmosphere charged me so much that (despite all my initial assumptions) I kept practicing over and over, nights, mornings… and enjoyed it so much
At the same time, I think that I also learned in the “actual” aikido practice, the changing dynamics (thanks to the brisk change of teachers and their styles) added another amazing dimension to the aikido marathon. I experienced (for me) completely new approaches and what’s more, I found elements to take away in each one…
The more I think about it, the more I believe that putting all those wonderful impressions into words is impossible…”
Lenka, 18-years-old high school student
Aikido Summer is four days of aikido with eight teachers in Berlin. And it’s also a lot of friends, culture and good food. Berlin is just chic.
And because we partly organize the event, we went there in a big group.
Green hills, cold streams, narrow rock passes and in the middle of it all young people from Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Ukraine practicing aikido for a week.
We were in the Slovenský ráj again and it was wonderful!
Aikido Summer jsou čtyři dny aikida s osmi učiteli v Berlíně. A také je to spousta přátel, kultury a dobrého jídla. Berlín je prostě šik.
A protože tuto akci částečně organizujeme, jeli jsme tam ve velké skupině.
This was our 15th summer school in Třešt’ under the guidance of Martin Švihla. 7 days and 6 hours of practice per day. Plus lots of time together over meals, evening talks, ambient music concert, board games and… just a week with good friends and aikido.
We have just created a graphic summary of our Aikido year 2022, that picture is a summary of what we experienced – and we experienced a lot last year! You’d be surprised how much can be accomplished in a year!
Behind the numbers are lots of lively people of all ages, exercising, laughing, spending time together. Behind those numbers is a lot of training, work, travel, events. Behind the numbers are us, our great club.
is a school of the martial art aikido for adults, youth and children.
Considering the amount of our classes, number of students and high level of organized seminars we belong among the most active European aikido clubs.
