    It was the first time that I trained aikido outside of Sweden and everything was just as I was use to when it comes to training formalia. The aikidokas are very inclusive and kind and the atmosphere in the dojo was the best I have experienced in my 17 years of aikido in Sweden. I can recommend fo try some sessions no mater your skill level you will be able to enjoy training at Aikido Chicago Aikikai.

    I'm a petite woman with two left feet and zero martial arts background. The prospect of showing up at a Dojo was pretty intimidating. I came to a free Sunday introductory class with my husband and I've been training now for 6 months. The environment at Chicago Aikikai is so inclusive and encouraging. The Senseis (instructors) do an excellent job of explaining and demonstrating the movements.

    If you've been on the fence about learning a martial art, I would highly encourage you to check out Chicago Aikikai. You might even see a petite woman throwing a man twice her size.

    Overall this place is an absolute hidden gem of Chicago. The dojo itself is a beautiful place to practice and quite possibly one of the best I've ever seen. But where this place sets itself apart, for me, is the roster of wonderfully talented students and teachers that train there. I'm constantly amazed with level of understanding that each teacher has, as well as their unique ability to communicate new ideas they've been exploring in their own practice.
    What I learn from this dojo exceeds far beyond what is taught on the mat.
    Very lucky to have the opportunity to train there and cannot say enough good things about the Chi-Kikai. (Chicago Aikikai)
