We are almost done with construction of this 4,300 sq. ft. building (a little less than half will be a production studio) The Dojo will include changing rooms, shower, kitchen area, LED lighting, ceiling Fans & a 1,600 sq. ft. sprung floor mat system with 72 Zebra Mats, which will be the largest martial arts mat system of this kind in NC & SC. Stay tuned on more announcements regarding our Grand Opening / Open House, Inaugural Seminar with Andy Demko, 7th Dan, Shihan, USAF Technical Committee & our 2016 Q1 Community Self Defense Class!

Myoho Aikido Vermont Announces New Location

October 23, 2013 by Laura Pavlick

Myoho Aikido Vermont thanks the unfailing efforts of its incredible students & friends who transformed what was a complete shambles of an industrial space, one that needed to be fixed in every way, to what you see below. What everyone did in only one week, mostly at night, and often until the early morning hours, is something we will always be so grateful for. New location: Vermont Mill Properties, 160 Bemont Ave, South Wing, 4th floor, Bennington, VT
