Heard Around The Dojo Newsletter and Web site update With the move and all the work at the new dojo, we have not had much time to get new information up on the web site. We will get to it as soon as we can. If you have any thoughts, ideas or suggestions, please email us. We have Moved We have moved the dojo to 1652A Bayly Street (Brock and Bayly) and we opened for classes Monday January 15th, 2007. Family Christmas Party This year's Family Christmas Party was held Thursday December 7th in the dojo. The lack of Christmas decorations did not deter everyone from having fun. Thank you to all who came out and especially to everyone who helped organize and make everything run smoothly. Click on the above picture for some more pictures. DVDs Now Available We now have available DVDs of all previous Dojo events, including your last kyu or dan test. Please order from the dojo or email the dojo. Renseikan Dojo Crests The Renseikan Dojo Crests are now available at the dojo. They can be used in many ways, on your dogi it should go on the left side, over your heart. Upcoming Events
Click on any of the upcoming events listed below to learn more: Winter Holidays The Clements Rd dojo will be closed Saturday December 23rd. The Bayly Street Dojo will open Monday January 15th, 2007. On Wednesday January 24th we will be doing our "Hajime" training in the adult Aikido class. "Hajime" means to begin and we will be doing techniques rapidly on that command. It is an excellent cardio workout as well as an excellent training tool. When you must react quickly over and over to a command, you have no time to think about what you are going to do - you can only do. That is important in the martial arts. Be sure not to miss this class. After the class we will hold our Shinbokukai (Friendship event) at a local restaurant or in the dojo. Karate Friendship Night We would like to invite any karate-ka who practice Matsubyashi-Ryu to join us for the last Thursday of every month. After a good warm-up of kihon (basics) we start kata practice and sometimes also add Bunkai (application) and Yakusoku Kumite (pre-arranged sparring) practice to the evening. Our dojo is open to all, regardless of rank or associations. This is a non-political dojo and a fun night of training together in the true spirit of Nagamine Shoshin Sensei's Karate-Do. If you are interested in joining us please contact us for directions and times or feel free to drop in for the 8:45pm adult class on the last Thursday of each month. The next Kata night is Thursday January 25th. Dojo Work This Week (January 9-15)
