The first day of spring fell on a Saturday this year, helping with a big turn-out to our annual spring dawn training session. We were also helped by the mild weather, the calm sea, and a fantastic sunrise.

Garry took the class, which after some light stretches, covered a range of Aikido weapon techniques, using the jo. It was a first weapons class for some - expect similar classes on Fridays and Sundays - but without having to worry about the tide moving in!

We have also uploaded a gallery of the morning, see our Aikido dawn training session.
