Aikido Kiyokan
International

train your body and spirit

Defense against multiple attackers.
We practice a dynamic and tough style of Aikido.

Concentration

In Aikido Kiyokan, we do not rely on might. We try to develop the focused power of the whole body (shuchu-ryoku). When the strength of legs, knees, hips, stomach, etc. is united in one point, an extremely powerful force develops.

Timing

In Aikido Kiyokan, we learn to react at the moment when an attacker is sure that his attack will hit the target. If the timing of your attack is correct - you will be able to cause a serious damage to the enemy, even if you do not perform any specific technique.

Protection from weapons

The dynamic techniques of Aikido Kiyokan are aimed at neutralizing attackers with cold weapons. Movement speed and circular movements give you a chance to emerge victorious from the most difficult situations.

Whole body strength

Aikido Kiyokan teaches us to use the whole body power, and not just arms or legs. Using the whole body and concentration increases your strength immensely.
