Hi All,

Just wanted to give you an update on the new facility in Hudson. We are working hard to get it ready by the 26th (tentative opening date).

It will feature an enclosed yoga room, 2 training areas, cardio and weight equipment and over 2200 square feet of mat space.

Anyone who wants to help paint or just work on stuff, let me know, we can use the help on the weekends.

In Aiki,

Mike

Seminar with Randy Bonifay sensei!
Minimize


The Spring 2007 seminar with Randy Bonifay sensei was a blast!

IMG_0909.jpg


Uke just happens to be along for the ride.

The April seminar saw a number of notable milestones: our best attendance levels yet, courteous guests, new products, new restaurant, and certainly not the least a new nidan!  (Cory Hansen, pictured, front row, second from right) 

Many interesting and excellent topics were covered, from attitude in technique execution, to movement direction, and weapons.  Many brains were harmed in the making of this event.

Thank you sensei!  Our deep thanks go to sensei for his time and to the students who really pitched in to help make his visit pleasant and memorable.  We truly would not have had that success without their help.
