Join us for Our Traditional New

Year’s Celebration

Saturday December 31 Starting at  4 PM

We start by cleaning and doing maintenance in the
dojo.
Sweep away the dust and accumulated debris of the
past year. Prepare to enter into the new year light,
clean, and with fresh energy.

7 pm -10 pm

Training. Three hours of training to celebrate the
healing nature of Aikido, and to explore the creative
growth of the Art of Peace in each of us.

10 pm

We will enjoy a potluck meal. Share in the community
that is our dojo.
As the past year slips into the New Year we will take
part in a traditional Zen meditation and ceremony, to
finally clear out our personal debris and welcome the
new year in with a fresh and open spirit.

All students and their families are welcome!

Please let us know you are coming so we know how many to expect.  There is a sign up sheet at the dojo.

A Door

Conflict is a door

Closed and locked it is a barrier.
We are only able to beat against it until we are bruised and beaten or
The door is shattered left serving no purpose.

Open and swinging wide with the support of its hinges
A door is an invitation to explore opportunities.
