Our annual national weekend get-together for yudansha (black belts) and senior grades (1st and 2nd kyu, purple and brown belts)
Led by Henry Sensei Rokudan 6th Dan, at City Dojo Wellington, assisted by all Yondans (4th dans)
Last year we discussed Always being on so building on that, this year’s HGR is: The dojo without walls – Aikido everywhere
- We can explore how aikido practice extends beyond mat time
- Always being on means recognising aikido opportunities in daily interactions
As in past years, all HGR attendees will do a two-minute demonstration, and we will have a circle discussion on key areas that we need to focus on in relation to the next stage of development for Riai Aikido.
Weekend 18th and 19th April 2026:
Saturday 18th April 10:30am to 3:30pm followed by drinks at the local then dinner (venues and details tbc)
Sunday 19 April 9:30am to 2pm
