Curious about Chicago Aikikai? We have two classes especially to welcome you!

Newcomers:  You are invited to our Saturday class at 10 AM or to our Sunday class at 11 AM. You may join us on the mat, or observe. We are currently mask-optional, but you are welcome to wear a mask if you wish.

If you will be practicing with us, you will need to bring proof of vaccination against covid-19. Please show up a few minutes early to introduce yourself, sign a waiver, and to warm up.  Bring sweats or other loose-fitting exercise clothing (and optional mask).

If you’d prefer to visit a different class, please contact info@chicagoaikikai.org to make arrangements.

Visiting aikidoka: You are welcome to train with us, whatever your affiliation may be. We do require a small mat fee.
