Phoenix Aikido and Fitness
Description
Phoenix Aikido and Fitness offers aikido, fitness, yoga, tai chi, complementary therapies and more in our permanent facility on the outskirts of Coventry. Phoenix Aikido and Fitness has been in existence since 1970, and has been in it’s present location since 1975. It was established and run by Tom and Barbara Moss until May 2003, when sadly Tom passed away. Barbara Moss, who currently holds the rank of 6th Dan, is the principal coach of Yama Arashi UK. Phoenix Aikido is a member of the British Aikido Board» and is affiliated to the Yama Arashi of Brussels, Belgium.
Aikido is a Japanese martial art developed at the turn of the twentieth century by Morihei Ueshiba. The principal feature of Aikido is that it is completely defensive to the point of non-violence. The aggression of an attack is defeated by moving in harmony with the attacker, rendering them harmless without causing injury. The art of Aikido is not reliant on athleticism or strength and therefore can practised by men and women of all ages.
Our own dojo encompasses three separate rooms which enables us to offer a comprehensive timetable of aikido, fitness, yoga, tai-chi, and complementary therapies. Please feel free to stop by at the club at any time; visitors are always made welcome, no matter where you train or what grade you are.

Weather update: there will be no adult aikido class today. The scheduled afternoon Grading course class is cancelled. The Grading will start at 10am tomorrow, and there will be a training session before the Grading starts. Our apologies for this. We don't like to cancel classes, but this recent weather has been exceptionally bad, and the road conditions are still very bad. The club is open for the Rangers and Junior aikido, but please don't travel unless you can do so safely.
**fitness classes cancelled** Saturday 9.25am Sorry ladies, a tough decision to make but feel it could put ourselves and others at risk to get there safely this morning. The rangers class and Aikido class will go ahead as normal. Barbara has made the difficult journey to the club this morning so do try to support the classes but only if it is safe to do so. We are very hopeful that all classes will be back to normal from Monday 😃
Although the weather is still bad, things are improving, and the club will be open for the Rangers class at 11.15 this morning. We'll keep you informed about the rest of today's classes as soon as we know more.
