The next Aikido dinner will be held on the second Monday of August so Paul can come along too! We’ll be eating at the old pizza place on warratah avenue which has changed it’s name to Lo Zucherro.

Looks like there was a successful grading over at the Melbourne Aikijujutsu Dojo! Congratulations to Sal for getting his 5th kyu.

It’s great to see the Dojo is putting down it’s first tentative roots.

About a week ago, the club held a special Wind-Up dinner with Sensei Giles who had been visiting Perth for about a week and had packed in as much time on the mats as possible. Many senior students turned up for the opportunity to train in with Giles and he seemed positively delighted with the numbers of willing uke available.

Sensei Giles has opened up an Aikijujitsu Butoku Ryu Dojo in Melbourne, Australia. If you are travelling out that way you would be warmly welcomed to step on to the mats.
