I hope you and your families are all well after the flooding in Dunedin. The dojo will be open for training as usual this evening. If you are training, please allow extra time to get to Ravensbourne as there are traffic lights near the stadium around a slip, so at peak times there will be delays.
Hopefully see you all later..

The “Early Bird” [ie cheaper registration] for the Spring Seminar finishes on Saturday 31 August. Go to www.christchurchaikido.co.nz to register and for details.
