Women's aikido Class 1

Class 1 was a success ....women gathered to begin an aikido journey. That includes black belts. Beginners and dan ranks beginning ...that's the dan rank mindset- or should be.
Irmi - moving towards uke to disarm uke.

BF Aikido October/19

Last class there were 34 earnest students practising aikido. Plenty returning students - plenty new and eager to learn. Practised ukemi, ready stance,  basic attacks and some basic moves. Looking good!

Aikido 2019 ..January

The new year has started with eager students at varying kyu ranks. Beginners working on 6th kyu , 6th kyu working on developing skill to gain 5th kyu (yellow), and 5th kyu working on skills to gain 4th kyu rank(orange). Students will  be introduced to dojo etiquette - 4th kyu will not be awarded unless students display knowledge of this etiquette. As ranks go higher, standards are higher.
