Training 17th Jan 2011 – Mick Pratt
Last night Genryukan Dojo was fortunate enough to receive a visit from Mick Pratt Sensei. Mick took the class covering tanto Randori no kata, plus lots of useful variations. In typical fashion, I forgot to bring my camera, so the clip below is about all I could manage using my phone.
New Calendar
We have now added a Genryukan training calendar on the website for your convenience. All training, gradings, seminars etc will be updated to this calendar so could be a pretty useful reference.
here is the calendar below, but you can find it easily on the “Where and When” page

Genryukan New Year 2011
I just wanted to wish our members, coaches, visiting Sensei, friends from other clubs, and everyone involved in any way with our club, a very happy 2011. Thank you so much for all your hard work and commitment in helping our club to prosper. Here’s to a great year of aikido to come.
Now to our club members, you’ve had a week off so it’s back to training. 2011 training commences this Monday (yes bank holiday) 3rd January. Good news is we will be holding our first Saturday morning Genryukan class on 8th January 9am-11am, usual place.
Please could you let me know (by whatever means you like) which sessions you wish to attend this week.
All the best
Phil
