Step into our dojo and experience the smooth flow of movements, the rhythmic exchange of energy, and the unspoken bond that ties each member together.

Whether you're training with us in person or following along from afar, we aim to inspire a love for Aikido that transcends borders and unites us all. So, whether you're seeking a new challenge, looking to deepen your understanding of martial arts, or simply yearning to connect with like-minded individuals, we invite you to join our Aikido family here at Kapiti.
