senior, falling

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.”

If you need an auxiliary aid/service or other accommodation due to a disability, please contact the library at least 7 days prior to the program date. We will make every attempt to fulfill all requests for accommodations. All programs are subject to change. For a list of upcoming library events, visit test-library.ehawaii.gov/events
