The weekly class schedule is flexible to suit various training preferences. Riai Aikido classes run on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturday mornings, while the Wellington Judo Academy holds classes on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturday afternoons. This allows students to choose according to their schedule and interests.
City Dojo also hosts events and workshops throughout the year. These include Aikido workshops and gradings on selected Saturdays, and Judo seminars and national gradings on designated weekends. Students can check the provided calendar for specific dates and details.
