Welcome to AIKIDO in Fredericksburg

Here at Aikido in Fredericksburg we have a thriving community of students young and old—some just beginning, others with decades of experience—who train together in the traditional, non-violent Japanese martial art of Aikido. We offer free trial classes for anyone interested in joining us, so please do!

What is AIKIDO?

Aikido is a martial art that focuses on harmonizing with your opponent to bring peaceful resolutions to situations involving conflict. Aikido is non-competitive, taught in a cooperative manner, good exercise, and fun!

One’s goal in Aikido is to redirect the opponent’s energy and neutralize an attack, preferably without harm.

Why do AIKIDO?

In addition to learning about self-defense, most people find that Aikido can teach one how to deal with the stresses of daily living and to acquire a general sense of well-being. The ultimate goal in Aikido is for the individual to develop mental, physical, and spiritual integration.

Students of all ages have different reasons for learning and practicing Aikido. We welcome them all.

You can learn a lot about Aikido and our non-profit dojo on this website, or better yet, come and train with us to experience the benefits that Aikido training has to offer you.

    There is a tremendous humanitarian investment here. Aikido of Fredericksburg promotes the beautiful art of Aikido, enhances the mindset of environmental guardianship, and elevates the responsibility of service to others.

    I have just completed a week of teaching in residence there and felt the need to bring this information forward for any of you who might have interest.
    I highly recommend it.

    Ginny Breeland Sensei
    6th Dan Instructor and Blogger of Aikido Advice for Women...and a Few Men
  • Training, especially with fellow aikidoka in different countries, gives me hope for humanity.

    Marc
  • Our world today, needs so many people like you. That rise up and put into operation the ethic of the Japanese Culture and the richness it possesses.

    Just want you to know how precious you and meaningful the Dojo has been to us, our Family and our new way of life in FXBG.

    Just wanted you to again know. I am and will continue to be Eternally grateful for you and Aikido in our lives.

    Paulette Johnson
  • We are happy to support your dojo when we can.  You have taught me a lot, about aikido and also about marketing, running a business, etc. and I really appreciate it.
    Lisa
  • At the end of the seminar today, you asked for our personal experience, and in less than 30 seconds.
    I thought that was brilliant of you. (I’ve been listening to Harry Potter books and my vocabulary has magically increased.)
    Here I can thank you, again, for providing the aikido experience that I value, even if I’m dragged in nervous and timid.
    And for the experience you provide that all the others value too — to the uchi dechi (a good group) and to the seriously intimidating sensei-s (just kidding) from near and far, and to everyone in between.
    Gordon
  • I have to say that I am so thankful to have had this second opportunity to train at your dojo; your aikidoka are an amazing group of people and exceptionally gracious teachers to poor students like me.
    Looking to the future, I hope to be able to visit and uchideshi for a week or so during one of the dojo’s jo months–I have a lot of jo to learn from Aikido in Fredericksburg!
