Our purpose is to serve and empower our community through martial arts.

A safe space for our children
Yoshinkan Aikido NT is a safe and nurturing space for children to thrive. We provide a fun and engaging environment where kids can build confidence, discipline, and essential self-defence skills while developing values that will benefit them for life.
Yoshinkan Aikido is a traditional Japanese martial art that focuses on using strong body positioning to unbalance an opponent in order to apply throws, joint locks, chokes, and pinning techniques. Developed in the early 20th century, Yoshinkan Aikido has since spread around the world and is most notably used by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police as part of their training.
