Weekly Bulletin 21st January 2019
Hello Everyone,
The Annual Beginners Course is now only 2 weeks away! It is really important to us that we continue to expand our Aikido family, however this is impossible without your help! It is in all of our best interested that we have an ever-growing group and the best way for newbies to join is via the Beginners Course – this was how I started myself! We urge you all to share the news using social media and word of mouth to raise awareness for the start of the course and encouraging people to get involved and join the family. We also have posters made by our own very talented Lucy Kong that you can put up in your work place! Any help in this regard will be greatly appreciated!
Lets get recruiting for our family!!!
*IF YOU HAVE’NT RENEWED YOUR INSURANCE BEFORE JANUARY 31ST THEN YOU CANNOT TRAIN* (more info below)

This is a course perfectly designed for a beginner to transit in to a fully paced regular class. With the focus being on the absolute fundamentals, anyone can benefit from these classes, even a seasoned black belt! This year will include an element of self-defence too! All courses will cost a fee of £60 for the 5 weeks.
Please spread the word and help our Aikido Family grow!

An insurance form will also need to be completed with the payment. You can find these attached or get them from Sensei Tad or Sensei Rowan. Note that there is a different form for adults and juniors.
