Japan Aikido Friendship Seminar
May 2-4 2010
Matsusaka, Mie Prefecture,
Hosted by Yoshitake Hashimoto sensei, Founder Junshinkai Aikido
Join a fabulous line up of senior instructors from Japan and around the world for three days of exploring aikido without boundaries and building a bridge between Japan and Australia.
Located in Matsusaka its only a short ferry ride (45min) across the bay from Nagoya airport and takes you back in time as you enter rural old stye Japan. A 3 day intensive aikido seminar will have you relaxing each night in the sento (traditional bath house) before enjoying traditional local foods. Enjoy top class training facilities on a umm.. 250 mat dojo on a sprung wooden floor.
After the seminar we visit the Ise shrine (perhaps Japans most important shrine) that is well off the tourist track and rarely visited by westerners. Enjoy the atmosphere, traditional foods and crafts. Only a day later find yourself in Takayama lodging for two nights traditional style in traditional Japanese lodgings. For those time poor already a week (9 days)has gone by and its time to go home and back to work.
Those with a little more time and cashed up can stay on for fabulous Kyoto (the old capital), maybe koyasan and then hit the new capital Tokyo (which has the same number of people as Australia living in it) maybe staying at Andrew Sunters favourite hotel the Andon Ryokan and then head home the following Friday or stay longer and hump a backpack (for the independant travellers amongst you)

Hi all,
With the soon to be arriving new addition to our
family, I don't see that I'll ever have the need for
four gi's again therefore I'm selling two of them.
They are both size 3, one is in excellent condition,
selling for $35 and the other is in very good
condition for $25.
I'm in Brisbane and sorry, pick up only. You can
contact me off list at this address.
Cheers,
Charlie

Hello all,
I have just had my 1stAikido class for 13 years with Thom Hansen in Cleveland. I got my Shodan from Maruyama Sensei in 1991 I think when he had taken over from Tohei Sensei in the Ki Society. Since then I got interested in various styles including Yoshinkan and Kokikai and Iwama. My then wife Rain and I started the Northern Rivers Aikido Association which went for 4 years.
It was strange to be on the mat again but after only one class I have gotten the ‘bug’ again and will start training in the new year. I live in Corinda in Brisbane. Is there anyone close to me who would like to train? I have 4x5 metres of mats. As I am starting after such a long time I am willing to train at any level.
Which is the closest club to Corinda?
My name is now Rudran but I was known as Shane or Kelly back then when I was training with Ki Society.
Have a good season beautiful beings, Rudran.

Please find attached the details for Maruyama Sensei's Sept, October Seminar in Brisbane 2007. The Australian seminar series this year will be held in Brisbane and Melbourne and I would like you to consider adding the Brisbane seminar to your itinerary.
Last year we had a fabulous turnout with aikidoka from all around the country and a few from overseas joining us for the weekend. This year the seminar runs for the better part of six days in a much roomier venue just 8km from the city centre. Set in a rural aspect it also features an outdoor bar (for those serious apre training conversations). During each day there will be 5 hours of teaching by Maruyama sensei plus some social activities and instructor workshops (run by AY instructors) as well.
Many Brisbane students are so keen to have you visit that they will even give you somewhere to stay - please contact our billeting man Tony Sensei if you are interested (see registration form for details)
Seminar registration includes a discount for out of town students that have far to travel and an early bird discount if you register early enough. Registration includes lunches for each day and the seminar dinner as well. Some pictures from last years seminar and dinner can be found on http://brisbaneaikido.com/gallery/Maruyama2006/Maruyama2006.html

Really enjoyed seeing you the other week; just sorry dinner wasn't possible.
Danny - you don't have to organise the whole world, just relax a little.If there is anything I can do let me know.
Do you know anything about this aikitaiki group? Apparently I have been signed up, but I don't know who organised it, what the sign-in/logons etc are.
BTW - I am quite happy to step up and take a more high profile role if that is what people want or need. I'm not keen to do that as a rule as there are some "sensitive" people/seniors who would resent that.
