Iwama Aikido

bei der FTG Frankfurt

single page with basic information in English

 

Our Dojo belongs to a universal sports club, the FTG Frankfurt. That means: those who want to join us regularly need to subscribe to the club. But it means also, that room and tatami are available throughout the entire year, even during school holidays.

 

Apart from that state, we consider us to be an independent Dojo, getting its main ideas out of Takemusu Aiki Deutschland and Mark & Ute van Meerendonk.

 

Since fall 2007, Stefan Weiss (2nd Dan) leads the Dojo.The teaching is currently done by the five black belt holders.

 

At the moment (summer 2009), 13 pupils train together. They are at all levels (from beginners to "black belts").

 

Our classes:

 

Monday 8:30pm - 10pm - weapon's class for advanced students (only twice per month)

Tuesday 7pm - 9pm - bare hand techniques for beginners and advanced students

Friday 6:30pm - 8:30pm - weapon's class and bare hand techniques for beginners and advanced students

 

in the rooms of the FTG Frankfurt, Marburger Straße 28, 60487 Frankfurt (Bockenheim).

 

 

You are welcome to join us, coming as a new member or visiting us as a guest!
