Membership Information
Aikido membership includes monthly and annual options designed to support different training needs. The sections below outline all membership & practice fees along with the annual federation & required fees for new and returning members.
Billing
- Monthly fees apply to all active members and cover ongoing membership and practice.
- Annual prepayment is available for Adults and Juniors at a discounted rate.
- Annual federation fees support national and provincial aikido organizations and are paid separately.
- Victoria Aikikai is a registered non‑profit organisation. Our instructors are volunteers, but we have substantial rental expenses each month. We appreciate the timely payment of monthly fees.
