As I'm sure most of you are aware, we are lucky enough to be hosting Masuda Sensei on his holidays at the moment. Sensei enjoys having people join him for golf so if you play and would like to join Sensei for a round or two, please let me know.

He will play mostly at Waimairi Beach Golf Club and plays at first light. Even if you don't play golf, Sensei appreciates the company if you would just like to walk the course with him. As before, I've set up a calendar so you can see who's playing when.

For those who haven't met Masuda Sensei before, this is a very good way to get to know him. He's very easy to talk to, and if you make the effort, you will see the benefits on the mat.
