❗️ NEW WEEK, NEW TECHNIQUE ❗️

“Is Aikido actually practical?” 👀

Honestly… that depends on how you understand and apply it.

Aikido can look soft, flowing, and peaceful, but when needed, it can also become direct, fast, and effective. Sometimes the difference is simply in the mindset and timing.

You don’t always need long movements or complicated setups.
Sometimes all it takes is:

• entering at the right moment (irimi)
• creating distraction (atemi)
• and breaking balance (kuzushi)

That’s where things suddenly start to make sense.

At first, Aikido may look mysterious from the outside. But once you feel the movement and understand the body mechanics behind it… you realize it’s less about fighting strength, and more about positioning, timing, connection, and efficiency.

And maybe that’s why so many people get curious after trying it for the first time. 😄

So… are Aikido techniques practical?

There’s only one real way to find out...
Step onto the mat and experience it yourself. 🥋✨

🔅 SUNDAY FUNDAY AT SERENIA 🔅

Some people find Aikido by accident.
Some people return to it after years away.
And some have been carrying the spark quietly since childhood without even realizing it.

Yesterday at Serenia, we welcomed three new stories onto the mat.

First came . Ever since she was little, she had memories of watching her father practice Aikido at a Kobayashi Dojo. He once showed her a few techniques, and somehow those moments stayed with her through the years. Maybe that quiet memory finally called her back to the mat.

Then came . For a long time, he had admired Aikido as “the art of peace,” but life simply never gave him the opportunity to try it himself. Yet even in his 50s, his curiosity and spirit to learn were still alive. He found our Serenia dojo while searching for a place nearby… and yesterday he finally stepped onto the mat for the very first time. Sometimes, it’s never too late to start something meaningful.

And finally, Misato-san. She practiced Aikido for two years in Japan during high school, but as life moved forward. Marriage, children, moving abroad. Aikido became a distant chapter in her story. After finding our dojo through Instagram, she stayed connected with us for a while before finally making it to the mat yesterday. Maybe some journeys just take the scenic route before bringing us back home.

To Farah, Yuriadi, and Misato-san… thank you for sharing the mat and your energy with us yesterday. We hope you enjoyed the experience, and we’d love to continue supporting your Aiki journeys ahead. 🥋✨

And now the question is…

How long have you been thinking about trying Aikido, but still waiting for “the right time”?

Maybe your story starts with just one class.

Our dojo doors are always open. 🫶🏻

🌛 TONIGHT AT KIDA 🌜

Some people find Aikido by accident.
Some are invited onto the mat.
And some… somehow find their way back to it.

Tonight gave us a little bit of everything. 🥋✨

Undral brought her younger brother, Dulguun, to KIDA for the very first time. He’s currently studying in China and visiting Jakarta for a month. Before this, he had never even heard of Aikido, but thanks to a little encouragement from his sister (and maybe a bit of sibling pressure 😄), he decided to give it a try.

He arrived a little late after battling Jakarta traffic, stepped onto the mat, and immediately started adapting. Having practiced Judo before, the concepts of grabbing, throwing, and controlling movement already felt familiar to him. Different art, different rhythm… but the spirit of learning was there.

And honestly, that’s what Aikido often becomes, learning how to adapt.

We also had Bli Totok joining us again tonight. He used to train in Yogyakarta up to 5th kyu before life and work took him to different cities. But wherever he went, he always tried to keep searching for a dojo and continue the journey.

Last week, he came to JACC Kemang for a trial class.
This week, he came back as part of the family.

Welcome home, Bli Totok! 🙌🏻

One person took his very first step.
Another continued a path he never truly left.

That’s the beautiful thing about the dojo...
everyone arrives with a different story, but somehow we all meet on the same mat.

Maybe your story starts here too.
See you at KIDA! 👋🏻✨

🌛 TONIGHT AT KIDA 🌜

Some stories don’t start with experience…
they start with a little bit of courage.

Tonight, Mikha, 13 years old, stepped onto the mat for the very first time.

A couple of weeks ago, she and her mom came just to watch a class at Serenia. Quietly observing, taking it all in… and maybe wondering, “Could I do this too?”

Fast forward to tonight, she showed up, tied her belt, and stepped in.

Was she still figuring things out? Of course.
But what stood out wasn’t perfection—it was her spirit.

She stayed present.
She kept going.
She finished the class.

And that’s where every Aiki journey truly begins.

Well done, Mikha. We’re glad you found your way to the mat.

And if you’ve been watching from the side, waiting for the “right moment”…
maybe this is it.

Just step in.
We’ll take care of the rest. 🥋✨

❗️BOOK FOR TONIGHT AT KIDA❗️

How do you throw someone… without actually lifting them? 👀

For this week, we play with a classic hip throw (Koshi Nage).

It starts simple:
create a little imbalance (Kuzushi)…
move your body (Tai Sabaki)…
connect to your partner’s center…

…and somehow, they just float over your hip.

No heavy lifting.
No brute force.
Just timing, movement, and a bit of “wait… how did that happen?” 😄

That’s the fun part, what looks complicated at first slowly becomes natural once your body starts to understand.

Aikido has a way of surprising you like that.
Curious to feel it for yourself?
Come try it. Your first throw might be closer than you think. 🥋✨️

🌛 TONIGHT AT KIDA 🌜

Well… look who found her way back to the mat.
gi returned tonight for her second class, right after a full day of work and navigating Jakarta’s legendary traffic. She arrived just as warm-ups ended, took a moment to catch her breath, did her own quick prep… and quietly stepped onto the mat. No fuss, just intention.

It was also her first time wearing a keikogi.
And somehow, it fit, not just the uniform, but the feeling.

You could see it… that shift.
From the outside world… into something calmer, more focused, more present.
Movement by movement, she settled in, let go, and simply trained.

That’s the thing about Aikido...
it stays with you.
Even after your first class, it lingers… until one day, you find yourself coming back.

Welcome (again) to the mat, Undral. We’re really glad you’re here.

And if this sounds a little familiar…
maybe your “next class” is already calling. 🥋✨

🌛 TONIGHT AT KIDA 🌜

What happened on the mat tonight?

Some nights feel a little extra special… and tonight was one of them.

The mat was alive with energy, familiar faces, and a story we didn’t expect. We welcomed someone new, well… not entirely new. stepped onto the mat tonight, but in many ways, he was returning home.

These days, he’s usually in the striking area, focused on boxing. But life has a funny way of bringing things full circle. About 20 years ago, back in his college days in Yogyakarta, he used to practice Aikido. The dojo name may have faded, the sensei’s face may be a distant memory… but the feeling? That stayed.

So when he realized there was an Aikido class here at KIDA, he didn’t hesitate. He stepped onto the mat again.

And just like that... something clicked.

Movement flowed. Timing returned. The body remembered what the mind had long forgotten. Because once you’ve practiced Aikido… it never really leaves you.

That’s the beauty of this path.
Your Aiki journey doesn’t end, ⁴it simply waits for you to come back.

So here’s your sign…

Maybe it’s time to step onto the mat again. 🥋✨

🔅 SUNDAY FUNDAY AT SERENIA 🔅

Some Sundays turn into stories you don’t forget. This was one of them.

Yesterday, our mat welcomed a special guest, , a 4x Wing Chun World Gold Medalist and Ip Man lineage practitioner, who stepped into Aikido with pure curiosity and an open mind. What started as “just trying something new” quickly became a full experience, from warm-ups to basics, techniques, and finishing strong with the class.

You could see it in his expressions, surprised, challenged, and genuinely enjoying every moment. Different art, different movement… but the same spirit. He embraced it, adapted, and most importantly, connected with the practice and with everyone on the mat.

That’s what we love about Aikido. It’s not about where you come from, but how you show up. One step onto the mat can open a whole new journey and a whole new circle of friends.

Now he’s part of the story… part of the family.

So here’s a question for you... when will your story begin? 🫵🏻🥋

Our doors are always open.

✨️🌙 POST-EID GATHERING 🌙✨

Yesterday after keiko, the mat slowly turned into something else…
Laughter, stories, shared food and that familiar feeling of being together again.

Because Aikido is not only about techniques on the mat…
It’s also about the connections we build off the mat.

It’s where training partners become friends, brothers, sisters, family members, and the dojo starts to feel like a second home.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who came, brought something to share, and made the afternoon so warm and memorable.

Moments like this remind us that this is more than training… this is family... Aiki family. ❤️
