This event began 02/22/2025 and repeats every week on Saturday forever
We offer training with wooden sword (bokken). It was once part of medieval samurai culture. Nowadays people seek in it inner clarity, determination, harmony with the body, release from every day stress. And of course, work with the bokken is a great opportunity to use the wide range of movements with the arms and shoulders (what we normally do not do in modern life).
These trainings are for all who is interested in studying work with wooden sword (any age, any athletic level). We have dozen of bokken waiting for the training in the great mounting open air of Boquete.
When: each Saturday, 9:00-10:00
Where: Boquete Park, straight ahead from the main entrance
Who: Bernd and Aleksandra, black belts in Aikido
Language: English/Spanish/German/Russian
Questions: +507 6410-8918, Aleksandra
Work with wooden sword (bokken) is a part of Aikido, a Japanese martial art which does not have competitions and focus on using the movement of partner to bring him (of her) out of balance. A regular Aikido training has a lot of round elastic movements, solves unnecessary tensions in your body and train 100% muscles of the body. Training with a bokken is usually given separate training sessions.
We, Bernd and Aleksandra, have many years of training experience, including teaching in Germany and Russia. For us Aikido is much more then a training: it is superb for life, excellent for health, and indispensable in both challenging and joyful phases of life. It fosters self-confidence, cultivates strong friendships, and provides a new perspective for handling all kinds of situations. We invite everybody to share this experience with us.
