Hi all, our next term of kids classes starts in two weeks time, on Saturday September 2nd.
Right now, as of Monday August 21st, there are just FOUR places available in this class. (For insurance reasons, the number of kids we can take is capped, and so new kids are only admitted when places appear.)
So, if you'd like your child to train with us, here's how you can do it. Go to https://happobiken.com/ninjakids and add your e-mail address to the list by using the form at the bottom of the page.
Later this week, we will be sending out a mail with the link that parents can use to pay for the term. It'll be a case of 'first-come, first-served' once that mail goes out.
If anyone has any questions, please feel free to drop us a line here on Facebook.

We teach classical, old style Japanese martial arts, sometimes known as kobudo.

Hugely proud of all the kids who tested and passed gradings yesterday. This was also the last session of the term, and now we're on our summer break until September.
There will be a kids workshop between now and September - so watch out for details on that - but otherwise have a great summer everyone. Keep practicing and lots of love and encouragement from Alex, Plami, Sally and Rae.
(Thanks to Sally for making and bringing onigiri rice balls for everyone - the kids loved them and enjoyed discovering a new food!)
