Here is the November 2022 Aikido update for the Ki Federation.
We enjoyed seeing everyone at the Autumn Seminar including members from Holland. Congratulations to the following members who passed their Dan Grading…
- 1st Dan: L. Zack, and J. Kok (Holland).
- 2nd Dan: P. Oroszlany, M. Van Der Brugge, and M. Dekker (all from Holland).
- 3rd Dan: E. Matthews and P. Zack.
Our thanks go to all the Dan Grades who came to make ukemi and we thank all the Grading Officers and members who helped on the weekend. Congratulations also to the members who passed their Kyu Gradings.
For the Christmas course, on the 10th December, we also have Dan Gradings and will require members to make ukemi. We have two for going for 1st Dan, one for 2nd Dan and two for 3rd Dan Grading so please contact the office if you can attend. The Dan Grading starts at 9.30am, with the open course from 1.30 to 3.30pm
If teachers have members who they wish to be graded for Dan Grading in 2023 please send their names to sensei Margaret as soon as possible – the grading slots are filling up.
For Dan Grade Group courses, members who are unable to attend their own group dates are welcome to attend lower grade groups if that is more convenient.
