Sensei's Corner

Well done to our new Shodans Mike Mulvaney and Robert Jacoby.  You both did a great job preparing for the test and I am proud of you!

Summer training is upon us, and as a community we need to focus on ukemi as well as the Aikiken 6-12 for the upcoming weapons seminar.

See you on the Mat...

Test Prep Class Video



This clip shows the Dojo at practice during our test preparation time. I usually teach a regular class for an hour, and then we break into groups based on experience level. During this time, those who will be testing get ample opportunity to ask questions and learn the correct terminology. More senior practitioners gain valuable experience guiding others. We use this format for the month preceding the Seasonal Basics Seminar during which Kyu testing happens.
