Join us for five days of immersive Ki Aikido training at the 2025 Summer School — a unique opportunity to develop your practice in a focused, supportive, and inspiring environment.

Open to all members of the Shin Shin Aikido Association — from beginners to senior grades — Summer School brings together practitioners from dojos across the country for an intensive programme of training, learning, and connection.

Whether you’re looking to strengthen your basics, challenge yourself with new material, prepare for grading, or simply enjoy a week of Aikido surrounded by like-minded people, Summer School offers a welcoming and rewarding experience for all.

Across the week, you can expect:

• Daily Ki Aikido training with senior instructors

• Technical workshops focusing on posture, movement, weapons, and Ki development

• Dedicated time for paired practice and exploration of advanced principles

• Improvement through repetition, with space to refine techniques in depth

• Grading opportunities for eligible students

• Instructor development sessions for assistant teachers and Dan grades

• Relaxed social time, informal discussions, and the chance to build friendships within the wider community

• Optional morning or evening sessions for meditation, breathing, or weapons practice (depending on instructor schedules)
