The Prairie Aikikai practices on a regular schedule two days each week:
| Tuesdays | 6:30pm - 7:00pm | Children's Class (ages 15 and under) |
| 7:00pm - 8:00pm | General Practice Class | |

| Thursdays | 7:00pm - 8:00pm | General Practice Class |

In addition to our regular Tuesday/Thursday schedule the Prairie Aikikai routinely schedules special focused practices (usually for two hours on select Saturdays or Sundays). We also participate in seminars at other Aikido schools in our region, visits by guest instructors, and trips to other martial arts events. Consult the calendar in the dojo, or talk with one of the instructors, for specific dates, times, and locations
NOTE: This calendar is subject to change. The dojo is closed on all national holidays and may be closed due to unforseen circumstances (e.g., really bad weather). If you are unsure, please call ahead!

Practice Information
Classes meet several times each week and students are encouraged to practice as often as their schedules allow.
Classes consist of both individual and partner/group practice. Students should consult with Sensei before attending intermediate/advanced sessions.
New Students
Visitors are always welcome. We encourage potential students to visit and watch as many classes as they wish or even participate in up to two classes at no charge. (Guest participants are advised to wear loose-fitting clothing with long sleeves.)
New students can register at the beginning of any class session. Students must be 14 years of age or older (or have instructor permission). Registration is normally month to month, with special rates for students and families.
