Kuma Kai dojo in Sebastopol, CA will be hosting a seminar with Bob Nadeau Shihan on Sunday, April 30, 2011 from 10:30 to 4:30. Admission is $70.00
From the Kuma Kai Website:
Nadeau Sensei studied directly with O’Sensei. This is a great opportunity to study with a master teacher who has studied with the master himself!
For more information, please go to the Kuma Kai Website or contact Denise Barry at 707-829-9550
John Stevens will be at a San Francisco art exhibit at Fort Mason the weekend of Feb 5th. Bob had mentioned that if you are interested in going Bob may be able to get complementary tickets.
Here is Bill Misson, our oldest Aikido student and Sensei’s second oldest student (Sensei has a t’ai chi student in his 90s). Bill is shown here doing some jiwa waza with Sasun Torikian.
One of the students at our Aikido school had a milestone birthday he celebrated with us on Saturday, January 15th. He turned 80 years old.
Sensei gave bill the mat and he taught the class as a way of honoring the day. To say that it is admirable to see someone at Bill’s age rolling around and throwing people with such ease is a gross understatement.
It is a beautiful and wondrous thing to be able to train with someone with Bill’s experience.
Happy birthday, Bill! You certainly deserve it.
After class sugary fun!
