Aikido Sydney is an independent guide to Aikido and martial arts in Sydney. We write plain-English articles for people who are curious about training, whether you’ve never stepped on a mat or you’re looking for a new club.

What You’ll Find Here

• Aikido basics: what the art is, where it comes from and how it works, starting with What is Aikido?
• Where to train: our Aikido dojo directory lists Aikido Kenkyukai clubs in Sydney, across Australia and overseas.
• Combat sports guides: how Aikido compares with judo, BJJ, boxing, Muay Thai and MMA, in our combat sports section.

A Note on This Website’s History

This web address used to belong to a Sydney Aikido club. That club no longer runs this site. Aikido Sydney is not a dojo, and we are not affiliated with that club, with Aikido Kenkyukai International or with any other martial arts organisation.

Because other websites still point to some of the old reference pages, we’ve kept the most useful ones online and updated them. If you’re looking for a class, please contact a club directly through the dojo directory.

How We Work

Everything on this site is general information, not personal training or medical advice. Class times, fees and venues change, so always check with a club before you visit. If you spot a mistake or a club that has moved or closed, let us know and we’ll fix it.
