Aikido of Champlain Valley (www.burlingtonaikido.org) is offering a free Aikido workshop and open house next Saturday, February 27 from 1pm-2:30pm for all ages. Come learn about Aikido as a martial art, how it differs from commonly known ones such as Karate, Judo, etc., and a bit of its philosophy!

If you want to get hands-on, please dress in comfortable loose athletic attire with preferably pants (instead of shorts) and have a parent or guardian with you if under 18.

Located at 257 Pine St., Burlington, VT (across from ReSOURCE and next to Curtis Lumber, off-street parking in the back)

Our dojo offers classes for teens and adults 7 days a week and classes for youth (7-12 years old) 4 times a week with special focus on youth-specific topics like bullying and conflict resolution. (For more information, on the children's program see http://www.burlingtonaikido.org/childrens-program/)
