Russell Alvey Shihan dojo cho
For over 30 years, North Texas Aikido has served the community with Iwama-Style Aikido in a safe, friendly atmosphere that fosters learning and development at a pace tailored to each individual student.
Join us for serious training in the peaceful and effective martial art of Aikido, at our free-standing dojo set back amongst the woods and plains of our eight-acre oasis away from the noise and distractions of city life.
Progress comes to those who train and train; reliance on secret techniques will get you nowhere.
