The Latino Student Alliance at Old Dominion (LSA) is a multi-ethnic organization dedicated to educating and unifying students of all races at 51Ç鱨վ while understanding, appreciating, and connecting with the Hispanic ethnicity. Though membership is not limited to anyone, students who find LSA most beneficial are international and Spanish language students, those interested in Hispanic cultures (dialects, dances, foods, traditions), individuals seeking cross-cultural experiences, and people seeking fellowship or on/off-campus diversions. We provide voluntary services to the 51Ç鱨վ and Tidewater communities while generating an apprehension of the Hispanic ethnicity through every event, service provided, and educational program offered.

The aim of the club is to teach traditional Martial Arts (Aikido, Judo, Karate) in a safe and disciplined environment.
