EnglishWhat is Hilliard Martial Arts Center?
Updated
Hilliard Martial Arts Center is a martial arts training facility in Hilliard, Ohio, on the western edge of Columbus, just off I-270. It has provided martial arts training since 1990 and hosts three distinct arts under one roof: Columbus Aikikai (Aikido), United Modern Arnis, and Katori Shinto Ryu. It offers adult classes in each art, youth Aikido on Saturday mornings and Tuesday evenings, and semi-private lessons.
What the center offers
The school is organized around three martial arts traditions rather than a single style:
| Program | Art | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Columbus Aikikai | Aikido | Adult classes |
| United Modern Arnis | Arnis | Adult classes |
| Katori Shinto Ryu | Classical Japanese swordsmanship | Adult classes |
| Youth Aikido | Aikido for younger students | Saturday mornings and Tuesday evenings |
| Semi-private lessons | Varies | Available on request |
Because each art has its own adult class, prospective students can choose a program based on the tradition they want to study rather than a single curriculum.
Who it may suit
- Adults looking for Aikido, Arnis, or Katori Shinto Ryu training in the Columbus area.
- Families seeking youth Aikido on weekend or weekday evening schedules.
- Students who prefer semi-private instruction over large group classes.
Location and visiting
The center is in Hilliard, Ohio, just off I-270, which makes it accessible from much of western Columbus. Contact details and directions are on the site's "Location" page. The site invites prospective students to visit, so an in-person visit is the practical next step if you want to see a class before committing.
Practical notes
- Training has been offered continuously since 1990.
- The organization operates as Columbus Aikikai, Inc., doing business as Hilliard Martial Arts Center.
- It states a non-discrimination policy on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin.

If you are deciding whether to train here, the clearest path is to check the schedule and location pages, then visit a class for the art you are considering.
