When I uploaded the video, I completely forgot to do the same for the photos I had taken. Anyway I remembered today so they are now in the gallery.
Christian Tissier Shihan – Dartford Seminar Video
Genryukan attended the Tissier Shihan Seminar in Dartford at the weekend. I managed to get a little footage, and have haphazardly thrown it all together in the hope it is watch-able.
It was a very well attended seminar, I would estimated there were approx 100 people on the mat. Tissier Shihan was on top form, and as usual very charismatic.
Thanks to Brighton Aikikai for arranging the seminar.

As always, a thoroughly enjoyable evening was had on the mat, and then of course afterwards at the pub.
Our thanks again go to Neil Saunders and Mark Atkinson for coming down to visit us.

Video I threw together from Neil’s last visit
I’m not happy with the video editing software I used in Ubuntu, seems even less useful than Windows Movie Maker, I will try a new one next time.
