Aikido RVA South

Aikido RVA South is an affiliate dojo of Wadokai/Suenaka-Ha Tetsugaku-Ho Aikido based in the Richmond VA area. We have multiple Dan ranked (black belt) instructors who rotate class times, with Christine Golden Shihan overseeing all instruction. In our classes we follow a traditional format with bow-ins and proper etiquette. We combine ki development and falling practice with practical self-defense techniques including throws, pins, and wrist-locks.

 

We currently train at Mongrel Fitness Gym in N. Chesterfield, where there is also the opportunity to join BJJ, Judo, Muy Thai, and more. We welcome those interested in Aikido to try or watch a class!
