Albuquerque Aikikai and Okuyama Shihan hosted a memorial dinner during our recent Iaido seminar. We welcomed Manuel from Kurita Juku Aiki and Mike and Dulcey from Colorado.

During the dinner, we honored the family members we've lost and shared stories of those who came before us. It was a time for remembrance and to come together as a dojo family. These are some photos from the evening.

Thank you to Kayoko Okuyama for the incredible oden soup and curry and to all who attended to share in this special evening.
