Can you believe that last Friday was our last Elementary School Aikido Club session of the year? To celebrate, we held the awarding ceremony for their very first Aikido promotion to eleventh kyu.

Even though Aikido has no matches or competitions, there are plenty of opportunities for aikidoka to challenge themselves, meet other practitioners, and experience different approaches to the art. A major source of such challenge and discovery usually comes under the form of seminars, which are technical masterclasses placed under the direction of one or several teachers. Those can last from half-a-day up to an entire week for resident training.
After a very successful and enjoyable first year of existence practicing Aikido at YC&AC, our dojo has had to change its training location due to scheduling conflicts.
The Kagamibiraki is the first official event of the year on the Aikikai schedule, and in addition to being a traditional way to celebrate the new year, it also marks the publishing and awarding of the new dan grade promotions.
We hope that everyone is getting excited about the coming Winter Season. We certainly are! We will be going on break at both YC&AC and Saint Maur International School so make sure to note the following dates in your calendar.
