Club Event and Seminar
Hey Aikido Club
Couple quick announcements:
-Next Friday, February 20th, after practice the aikido club will be treating anyone who wants to come to pizza at Giordanos. Free pizza! So, just stick around after practice and we'll all head over together.
-Also Next weekend, on Saturday and Sunday the 21st and 22nd, is Kangeiko, or winter training. Kangeiko is a seminar at our parent dojo (Shinjinkai) downtown. The seminar will be instructed by Meido Moore Sensei (chief instructor of Shinjinkai) and Lisa Tomoleoni Sensei (a direct student of the Doshu). Seminars are a great opportunity to get to train with lots of different aikidoka. Interested members should follow the below link for registration and more information. Anyone planning to attend, should also let me know so we can arrange going down together.
