Third Friday Special Practice, Kyu Testing and Holiday Social

December 21, 2018 @ 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM

  • « Dojo Summer Picnic
  • Holiday Break – Dojo Closed »

All Aikido friends are invited to join us each third Friday at 6:30 till around 8:00 pm, for our special practice. Kyu testing will follow. We have a number of people ready to strut their stuff and present the results of their intense training. Please come and support our friends!

And then the celebration will begin. We will enjoy getting together around a potluck of beverages, dinner, and desserts, after class. So, it would be great if you are able to bring a dish or some beverage.

Come early, train hard, stay late! Bring a friend!

Aikido

Aikido, the art of peace, offers a modern-day path to achieving inner balance. Rooted in the traditional disciplines of the Japanese samurai warriors - including jitsu (hand), ken (sword) and yari (spear) - Aikido is a contemporary martial art that can effectively repel any attack, but the goal is nonviolent conflict resolution.
