Congratulations to Nikcsi Kobol who earned her yellow belt last night.
Well done Nikcsi!
Go placidly….
…amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

First training session at our new venue
Genryukan Aikido has started training at the new venue at the Clarendon & Westbury Community Centre.
It has been very successful with an excellent turnout, about 20 people, thanks to the support of Gowaryu, Mushin-no-shin and Katsujinken dojos. Their presence was very appreciated.
The session was mainly geared toward freeplay so we could test-drive those mats properly, and simply to have a bit of fun!
We would like to thanks the Dover Bushido Judo club for letting us use their mats.
Here are some pictures taken during the session:
