Sarasota Aikikai is very pleased to offer this year’s round of yudansha prep workshops!
Partly seminar format (with instruction), and partly interactive workshop format with plenty of time for Q&A (all the things you *wish* you’d been able to ask before), and real time problem solving with customized, practical solutions you can try out on your ukes right away. Plus mock-testing OF COURSE for those who will be testing for real at the seminar in August.
The instructors:
- Mike Page (6th dan)
- Tim Magill (6th dan)
- Melissa Bell (6th dan)
- Ola Karasik (5th dan)
- Meredith Abel (4th dan)
The schedule:
- Friday 6:00 – 8:00pm: Shodan Focus topics + open hand randori
- Saturday 10:00am – noon: Nidan/Sandan Focus topics + weapons randori
- Saturday noon – 1:00ish: Mock Testing
- Saturday Brunch provided in the dojo
- Saturday 3:00 – 5:00pm: Class based around feedback/Q&A from the Mock Testing
- Sunday 9:00 – 11:00am: Weapons for Testing (all levels)
All the instructors have pledged to donate their time and effort to support the regional aikido community ♥ so there is no registration fee for this event. Instead, we respectfully request a $35 donation/weekend or $25/day to cover costs. Registration is available online at https://form.jotform.com/251905582373158 or you can register and pay at the door the old fashioned way 🙂
Thanks, and see you soon!
