Aikido of Monterey has become a large part of the Aikido community since its beginning in 1973. We are affiliated with California Aikido Association (CAA) and Hombu Dojo (Aikido World Headquarters in Japan). More about AOM.

Sensei Danielle Smith has been practicing Aikido since 1973 and has been chief instructor since 1976. See about teachers.

Adult classes are held 7 days a week for all levels from beginning to advanced. We also offer an active program of classes for youth.
