| The Children's class at Aikido of Napa is held on Wednesday from 6:00 to 7:15 pm. Instructors Daniel Baron and Brad Shurmantine both hold ranks of San-dan and are both parents of young children. We create a welcoming and fun environment where boys and girls (8-13) can learn non-violent self-defense techniques, develop their athleticism and coordination, and have fun being kids. We don't teach children how to fight, we teach them how to deal with conflict . |
