REGISTRATION NOW OPEN! Ten instructors who shared the mats as young trainees at the Aikikai Hombu Dojo in Tokyo in the late ’90s are reconvening three decades later to share what they’ve learned and what they are focussing on now. All ten are now senior instructors across North America, some just training quietly, almost all run their own dojos, some have written books about Aikido, many teach at seminars regularly, some have started and grown federations of dojos, and two are even now recognized as Shihans (Master Teachers)! Come spend three days training and learning. It’s an extremely rare and special opportunity.
