Hi All,
Here’s a few photos from the recent Grimsby Course. It was a great weekend, great practice, great company, great food and drink – what more can you ask !
Thanks to our friends in Grimsby for hosting once again and thanks everyone that came along.
Here’s to more practice and courses in the new year.
Hi Everyone,
Here is the first of two updates on the Aikido course in Grimsby a few weeks ago.
For all those that couldn’t make it, it really was a great course and even though we from Aikido Northampton did not stop for the Sunday session, we thoroughly enjoyed it, both on and off the mat !
It started off on Friday evening with our old friend (in both senses of the phrase) Mike Jennings being awarded a long overdue grade of 4th Dan, made even more special by the completely full mat and also an appearance by his first ever Aikido Instructor John Gorry
.
John Gorry explaining how he knocked some Aikdo basics into Mike on his first class
Well Done Mike !
Hi all,
There is a course in Grimsby on the above dates which will, I’m sure, be very worthwhile attending if possible.
The Friday night session (not shown on the poster) will be at the Sports and Leisure centre Cleethorpes and will be ran by Mike Jennings.
The Saturday and Sunday are are a different venue with many different instructors – please see the poster for more details. Any questions – just speak to Steve, Cathy or Joe.
You obviously don’t have to attend all sessions, hope to see you there.

Just a quick note to say I’ve re-written by biography from scratch – as it was the only one that I didn’t keep prior to the hack !
