AikiQuest
AikiQuest is a program that uses the martial art of Aikido to support neurodivergent adolescents and adults in their quests for lives of dignity, meaning, and joy.
​
The AikiQuest program offers specific supports to make this transformative art open and available to neurodivergent individuals. These include:
​
*A full-hearted embrace of the neurodiversity paradigm and deliberate avoidance of languages, concepts, and mindsets associated with neuropathology.
*Small classes with multiple instructors and mentors where students receive individual attention and progress at their own pace.
*An aesthetically pleasing, low-impact sensory environment.
*Practices of etiquette and respect that are clearly communicated and gently enacted.
*Verbal and non-verbal teaching methods that cultivate fully-embodied learning.
*A friendly and supportive community of neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals.
