The Shudokan Black Belt Academy in Nottingham - the family martial arts school for character, education and development
Looking to exercise your mind and body? Interested in martial arts but not sure which to choose? Aikido, the ancient and moral martial art of self protection is ideal for all ages and a speciality of Nottingham martial arts club, Shudokan Black Belt Academy.
One very important difference between aikido and other martial arts such as karate, is that many of the ‘fighting arts’ are only about that – fighting. Aikido has a much more balanced, ethical ethos, which combines spirituality with the more standard martial aspects of self discipline and physical techniques. Lessons are not simply to learn self defence and the art of fighting but to develop mental discipline, self awareness, consideration for others and healthy habits.
At Nottingham based Shudokan Black Belt Academy, you can expect to develop:
- An improved level of fitness
- Greater self confidence and self awareness
- Enhanced relaxation and stress relief techniques
- Better co-ordination
Nottingham martial arts club Shudokan Black Belt Academy teaches both adults and children about life skills, personal safety, fun, fitness and hard work. Classes take place during the day and evening to suit your routine.
With 350 students enrolled, and three full-time and two part-time teachers, Shudokan Black Belt Academy is the largest aikido school in the UK and one of the largest in the world. Founder and owner, Sensai Ken Robson, is currently speaking to Nottingham council members in a bid to introduce aikido to school syllabuses and is keen to ensure that the purely self-defence martial art is not confused with other, ‘fighting arts’ such as karate.
Shudokan Black Belt Academy is offering all first timers a free first lesson. Simply call and book your place.
