Aikido of South Florida donating
to Operation Smile
Stephanie Yap, Chief Instructor at Aikido of South Florida, will be instructing
a seminar in Viña del Mar, CHILE May 16 & 17th, 2015 and will be donating
a portion of her fees for one child to receive the operation that will change
their life - FOREVER. Together we can make a difference!
Operation Smile provides free surgeries to repair cleft lip, cleft palate and other facial deformities for children around the globe.
What is a cleft lip and
cleft palate?
A cleft is an opening in the lip,
the roof of the mouth or the
soft tissue in the back of the
mouth. A cleft lip may be
accompanied by an opening in
the bones of the upper jaw
and/or the upper gum.
A cleft palate occurs when the
two sides of a palate do not
join together, resulting in an
opening in the roof of the
mouth. A cleft lip and palate
can occur on one side or both
sides. A child can suffer from a
cleft lip, a cleft palate or both.

Testimonials
Walking into Aikido South Florida for the first time was quite an experience. The dojo has an expansive, spacious feeling with a distinct Japanese decor. When there is no one on the mat, it has a zen-like energy, quiet and calm. However, when training is in motion, the atmosphere changes to being dynamic and vibrant. It is a welcoming environment to train, to learn, and to just be.
