Kids: Bring a friend invitation
Posted April 27th, 2010 by JamesI know many kids have friends that they would like to bring to aikido to try it out.
Consequently next week (3 – 8 May) we will hold “bring a friend” where you can bring a friend who is interested to aikido and help us teach them their first aikido lesson. For all the kids classes next week please bring along your friends (the classes are free for them). And of course if they go on to join you get a free movie ticket!!!
There is an invitation below you can print out for them.

Takase Shihan's End of Year Pre-Grading Aikido Seminar
Posted November 29th, 2008 by James in
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.
