Sorry but no practice until further notice.

Hi all,

Following the announcement from the government tonight, I’ve decided the safest course of action is to stop practices until further notice.

This is not a decision I’ve take lightly, but I hope you agree that we need to do whatever we can to help stop the spread of the corona virus.

Lets hope the actions we all take now help to make this situation as short a duration as possible and we can all get back to life as normal.

Please keep an eye on the website for more info or feel free to call me on 07808 571089.

Cheers Steve

Happy New Year !

Hi everyone,

We hope you had a great Christmas, are wishing you all a fantastic New Year and want to remind you that we start back at practice on January 7th 2020.

This should give us all enough time to rest any aching joints, have had our fill of the Christmas excesses and made new resolutions to continue / return to our practice.

We look forward to seeing you all in 2020 !

Cheers Steve.

This Thursday – 5th April – Aikido Grading

Hi All,

This Thursday, Charlie and Mike will be taking a grading, so if at all possible, please come along.

It would be great to get a few people there for moral support and to also provide different Uke for them. If you’re a relative beginner, it would be good for you to see what is required of you for the intermediate grades.

There will be a normal class through to around 9:15 and then the Grading will take place.

We hope to see you there.

Cheers – Steve

No Practice Tomorrow – Thursday 1st March

Hi everyone,

on the basis the weather is not going to get any better tomorrow and to save everyone from travelling, we are going  to cancel the class.

Unless you hear otherwise from us, the classes will be back to normal next week, 8:00 to 10:00 and we will rearrange the weapons practice for another session.

We hope you all understand, but safety in this weather has to come first.

Cheers Steve.

Hi everyone, I think I’ve managed to contact you all already, either in person or by text, but just in case I’ve missed some of you, there won’t be any practice this Thursday as both Cathy and I are not able to take the class.

Practice is still on tonight, but you get the night off on Thursday.

All back to normal next week.
