Gyokunenkan Aikido and Japanese Martial Arts

Great morning of swords and nerf with the kids combat club. Snacks and drinks included.

🎉 I earned the emerging talent badge this week, recognising me for creating engaging content that sparks an interest among my fans!

Our first kids combat club had the kids enjoying some foam sword fighting in capture the flag, but concluded in all out war with nerf guns. We had so much fun. Remember its $20 dollars off for GNK students, currently open to 6-11 year olds, but we will stretch it out to 5-12 year olds. Drinks and snacks provided. And for current students parents can drop kids off for the regular class at 0915 and pick them up at 12. Thays nearly 3 hours without them!

I think the kids will sleep well tonight..... I know the Instructors will.

Saturday training was delivered by Brad Sensei from Penguin Budo out of Tasmania, teaching us Yuishinkai Aikido techniques, and exploring the difference between linear and circular Aikido movement. We all practiced panda rolls, which I can assure the kids will continue to practiced in the young samurai classes. The grounding of our centre, and balance between Uke and Nage has definately helped better demonstrate the principals of Seiryoku Zenyo and Jita Kyoei.

For any of our students keen to explore more Yuishinkai Aikido with Sensei Brad, we will be at the dojo today from 2pm.

Tuesday and Wednesday have been fantastic training nights, but tonight Thursday the 25th June we have a special guest Sensei joining us for training. So we are calling all Gyokunenkan students to come along and enjoy a fun and dynamic mix of many Aikido styles. We hope to see you all at 6:15pm straight after the Junior samurai class.

With Australian Gyokushin Ryu Aikijujutsu Federation – I just got recognised as one of their top fans! 🎉
