Sensei (great teacher) Ueshiba saw his sport developed over the years and spread to all parts of the globe; and that now includes Marmaris.
Aikido isn’t like some of the other martial arts; it isn’t so much about winning or losing but a tool for developing self discipline and both physical and mental wellbeing. Aikido schools, like other martial arts establishments, are called dojos; the Ali San Dojo is held in the squash court in the large sports centre behind Netsel Marina. English speakers are welcome; they also speak Russian and German. Applicants will be judged for standards of prior knowledge. If interested, contact Mr Alper Irkli using the contact information here.
Classes are currently held three times a week, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, from 7 PM to 8:30 PM, but make sure you confirm the time and day before you go.
