April Dinner
Filed Under Social Events | Leave a Comment
The monthly dinner was quite successful, despite the original location being closed and losing a couple of guys with bad directions to the next place (Sorry Paul, Dave).
Those who made it to the secret final destination were treated to such discoveries as:
- Nick has a picture on his phone of a girl who may or may not be his girlfriend (he insists she is).
- Alex doesn’t like salty pizza.
- Ray continues to be the best wine merchant in Perth.
- Christian wants my car (you can’t have it).
Several people who couldn’t make it to this one have promised to come to the next one, so we will have to come up with a venue that contains more than 2 tables!

Secretary - Karel
Committee Members
Alexander, Michael, Christian
Sensei Brett also announced the decision to have a Kyu Grading (Coloured Belts) in about a months time. The actual date is yet to be decided, but it will be on a Monday night.
The regular training sessions will focus on the techniques students require to pass their grading. We won’t cover everything in each class, so you will need to attend as many as you can to be prepared. A full syllabus will be posted to the web site within a week.
We will announce more details as they come to hand..

New Pics and Video
Filed Under Social Events | Leave a Comment
Hi All
I have just finished updating a bunch of pages on Sensei Fujimori’s visits with the club. There are some old old photos from 1999 that have to be seen to be believed. If anyone has any text that could go along with the photos please send it to me and I’ll post it up when I can.
Also, suggestions for information that is missing on the site would be greatly appreciated. If you HAVE the information and are willing to hand it over that would be even better!
In the mean time, enjoy the memories (or discoveries, if you weren’t there at the time)

I have picked a few photos from the 2008 visit for everyone to have a look at. If you have some you would like to share, please talk to me about it at training next time you see me.
Here they are.

First Monday in May
Filed Under Social Events | Leave a Comment
Just a quick reminder that next week is the first Monday of the month and so we will be having another social dinner after training.
At the moment the location hasn’t been decided, but it usually involves pizza and will most likely be AT the dojo. If anyone has any suggestions for another location, speak up.
In the mean time, does anyone have any photos from Sensei Fujimori’s recent visit that they would be willing to have put up on the site for others to see? If you do, please contact me and I can make arrangements to collect them.
