Welcome to Ironwood Aikido Club, your premier destination for exploring the art of Aikido in Ironwood, Michigan. Located at 100 West Aurora Street, our club is more than just a gym; it is a community dedicated to the practice and philosophy of Aikido, a martial art that emphasizes harmony, balance, and self-improvement. At Ironwood Aikido Club, we focus on the fundamental principles of Aikido, which include irimi (entering), atemi (striking), kokyu-ho (breathing control), sankaku-ho (triangular principle), and tenkan (turning) movements. These techniques are designed to redirect an opponent's momentum and energy, allowing practitioners to neutralize attacks with minimal effort. Our curriculum features a blend of throws, joint locks, and a comprehensive weapons system that includes the bokken (wooden sword), tantō (knife), and jō (staff).
