Here is the aikido news February 2017…
We will require Dan Grade ukes for the next Dan Grading on 28th May, so please let the office know, as soon as possible, if you are available.
An additional course is being arranged to cover the etiquette relating to all aspects of Dan Gradings and also of making ukemi. This can be attended by all 1st Kyus and Dan Grades. This course will also be of help to new Teachers.
A further course to prepare for 3rd Dan Grading may also be arranged. So, for those who are interested, please contact the office to go on the waiting list. This course can be attended by any 2nd Dan, whether they have been invited for 3rd Dan or not, and any other higher Dan Grade who would like to attend.
An additional session has been added to the Spring Seminar, after the Kyu grading on Monday 29th May, from 3 to 5pm.
Two extra day courses, including kyu gradings have been arranged for the 1st April and 18th November. All members are welcome on these courses. Please add these dates to your course list.
Douglas Rudge has now closed his club in Seaton so we send him our best wishes and thanks for his teaching.
The timetable and venue for the Canada course in May have now been added to the calendar.
