Aikido at Renshinkan Dojo
A martial art based on the principles of non-violence and harmony — practised here in Hang Dong by students of all ages and abilities.
A martial art that protects, not harms
Aikido does not seek to defeat an opponent so much as to neutralise an attack while keeping everyone safe. It teaches students how to be assertive, not aggressive — a principle that holds true in life as well as on the mat.
That is why aikido sits at the centre of the foundation’s work. Each class is quiet practice in the very thing we hope to see in the world: strength used with restraint, and respect for the person in front of you.
A real dojo connected to the foundation’s mission
Renshinkan Dojo is in Hang Dong, Chiang Mai and is connected to the Peace Culture Foundation’s Aikido work. It is where students practise nonviolence, calm attention and respect in a physical, disciplined way.
The dojo welcomes beginners and experienced aikidoka. Visitors interested in classes should use the dojo website for current information.
