Located in the heart of Philadelphia's historic and business districts, Aikido of Center City has been offering world class martial arts instruction since 1997.  We're centrally located with convenient access from the city's main traffic arteries, SEPTA's bus, subway, & regional rail lines, as well as the bridges from New Jersey.  For out of town visitors, the dojo is within walking distance of many Philadelphia hotels and there's plenty of parking available in our immediate vicinity.

Aikido of Center City is a member of the United States Aikido Federation, which is under the direction of Yoshimitsu Yamada Sensei.  The USAF provides a direct connection to the World Aikido Headquarters in Tokyo, Japan and all Black Belt ranks are approved and issued by the Aikikai Foundation.

Our adult program is beneficial to those who have studied Aikido for years as well as those who are new to martial arts.  Our class schedule has plenty of fun, learn-at-your-own-pace classes for a beginner and challenging, dynamic classes for the experienced Aikidoka.

Visitors are always welcome to tour the school, watch a class, or train with us.  Please browse through our website and feel free to contact us when you're ready to begin, or continue, your Aikido journey.

We look forward to training with you!
