West Coast Aikido Martial Arts Academy will help you, or your child, condition the body, focus the mind and develop an indomitable spirit, leading to greater confidence and superior mental & physical fitness!
We offer an authentic Budo system (Mixed Martial Arts) blending the best elements of aikido, jujutsu, karate and judo, plus traditional Japanese weapons, into a unique and practical method of self-defence and self-improvement for children, teenagers, and adults, as well as a dedicated Women’s Self Defence Program, Local School Programs, and Private Lessons.
Yoseikan Aikido is a traditional Japanese mixed martial art which is a harmonious blend of Judo, Jujutsu, Karate and Kenjutsu and holds it’s foundations in the budo martial art of the Japanese Samurai. Many practice Aikido as a form of nonviolent self-defence, but many also train in Aikido for the mental and spiritual benefits that it provides. We have been helping kids, teens and adults in Perth build confidence and character since1993.
