The anniversary seminar is fast approaching - it's being held during the last weekend of September.

For our newer members, particularly those that haven't been to a seminar yet, it's a great opportunity to get to know people better and to train with a higher intensity. Don't worry, there are still plenty of breaks, and the structure is very similar to regular classes - so you will fit right in!

The biggest advantages are:

• You get to train with lots of really experienced people - as well as seeing most of our higher grades, we get a number of visitors from around the South Island and the rest of New Zealand
• Each class will normally concentrate on a particular theme, helping things sink in
• There's a Saturday night dinner - a great chance to chat
• Since the seminars give plenty of teaching material for the following weeks, you'll know what the instructors are talking about (or you'll be able to help them figure out what they're talking about!)

In recognition of the training advantages at the seminars, each seminar class counts as two regular classes towards your grading requirements.

Register by emailing Andrew or by putting your name on the list at the Burnside dojo.
