New Students
We would like to welcome to the adult class Michael, Serge, Lyndon, Patrick, and Robbie. And in our children's class, a heartfelt welcome to Tatiana. Train hard and have fun!
As a reminder, our student promotion is still in effect. For every new student
you refer, we will credit your tuition by the amount of the new
student's first tuition payment, up to your monthly rate. Our
promotion applies to both the adult and children classes, and can be
combined with our family and quarterly payment plan discounts.
Halloween Party
October is here and that means Halloween
is just around the corner.
To celebrate the change of season, we're planning a fun
Halloween party for our
younger students. We'll have games, prizes, and some tricks and treats starting
around 5:30 p.m. on October 31st. For those brave enough, we'll then
show the movie Monsters Inc., at 7:00 p.m.
Anyone
wanting to help us with this event is encouraged to email us with your
suggestions and availability. Sensei is very excited about this,
so get your costumes ready!
Homeward Bound
On a more melancholy note,
Corne, our talented 1st kyu and ambassador from the British Isle, is
returning home to England with his wife. Corne, we enjoyed training with you--you will be missed.
Sensei, myself and the school wishes you the best in your future endeavors. Please stay in touch.

A Guest
from Down Under...
 Russell
Boon, an Aikidoka from Australia, visited the dojo in September.
Showing true dedication, he took the time to train with us while on his
honeymoon. Some readers may recall that he visited us about four
years prior, at the UNF dojo.
Russell's visit was a real
treat. He trained in Sensei's class, and later taught a
very interesting class himself, focusing on kokyu and proper distance.
Congratulations again, Russell, on your marriage and thank you again for
the lovely posters. (One of which has been framed by Kevin and is
now hanging in a place of honor above our fountain.) We look
forward to seeing you again!
Friendship Seminar A Great
Success
What a blast. Our inaugural friendship seminar was great fun and a
valuable learning experience. Participating instructors were Grady Lane Shidoin
from Brevard Aikikai, Ted
Powers from the Aiki O-Kami Society, Barry "Dart"
Richardson from Sand Drift Aikido, James Woodard from Shugenkai Aikido,
and of course Dee. Sensei would like to thank the instructors, who
contributed their knowledge and time, as well as the seminar
participants. (And a special thanks to Susan and Steve for making the trek from West Palm Beach.)
Jerry would also like to thank Buck's smoker, which produced the best
darned bar-b-que I've eaten since my college years in Nashville.
