How to Join NSW Aiki Kai & Aiki Kai Australia

  1. Find your nearest NSW Aiki Kai dojo and attend a class to observe before training. Beginners are required to watch a class first.
  2. Speak with the instructor to ask questions about training, class schedules, and local dojo fees.
  3. Complete an Aiki Kai Australia membership application (online or paper form). Membership is at the national level and includes legal indemnity insurance.
  4. Choose your membership type — Adult, Family, Child, Student, Concession, or a once-only 3-month Introductory Membership for new students.
  5. Pay your fees — a national membership fee to Aiki Kai Australia, and dojo training fees separately to NSW Aiki Kai.
  6. Begin training once your membership is active. Financial membership is required before participating in classes due to insurance requirements.

For members under 18: a parent or guardian must complete and sign the junior membership forms.
