Today we had our regular pre-grading seminar with Takase Sensei. We had a good turn out, great weather, and it was a real treat to again be taught by New Zealand's highest ranked aikido teacher.

We were constantly challenged to look differently at our regular techniques, with variations and training ideas to both apply and receive these techniques.

Thanks to Kevin and Deb for hosting the evening bbq.

Pictures from the first half of the seminar are available below.
