Kupuna Aikido will demonstrate how to reduce your risk of falling and techniques that can reduce serious injury from falls.  Learn how to fall to help protect your head from injury, prevent or reduce significant injury such as broken hips, pelvis, arms, or shoulders.

Please note that this is not a martial arts class. This is a demonstration that will not involve physical audience participation.

Kupuna Aikido is a 501(c)3 organization made up of volunteer senior Aikido instructors whose mission is “To empower Hawaii’s kupuna with Aikido-based philosophies to preserve and protect their mobile independence.”

We have taken enhanced health and safety measures for you, our patrons, and our staff.  You must follow all posted instructions while visiting and/or participating in library programming.  An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present.  By visiting and/or participating in library programming, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19.  Please help keep each other healthy.

If you need an auxiliary aid/service or other accommodation due to a disability, please contact the library 7 days prior to the program date.  We will make every attempt to fulfill all requests for accommodations.  All programs are subject to change.
