HOW DOES IT WORK?
Each lesson is structured around a theme: beginning with a full body loosening and warmup routine, before moving onto solo weapons and bodywork training. Always moving from the simple to the complex; from the basics to the increasingly challenging advanced levels.
All classes are online, live, and interactive – taken as part of a group via Zoom Meetings. The Online Dojo is a community of members from many different countries, all training in the spirit of sharing and learning together. Class times are scheduled at a specific time and consist of daily morning classes and a weekly evening class (time-zone dependant). Each lesson is also recorded Live for you to review after the class in your own time – or in case you miss a class, you can follow along at a more convenient time. Sign up today, and you will receive all the necessary information to access the live classes and recorded content.
ZOOM MEETING INFO:
We use the same meeting number for all the classes – so this will not change. Zoom will save the number for you so you shouldn’t need to re enter it for every class, just select the Takemusu Aikido Online Dojo.
