Business as usual
Every year the dojo gets hit. It’s usually the weather doing all the hitting. This year was no different. Oh, alright, this year is pretty different as the dojo got hit really hard. Most of you would have seen the water damage caused by the heavy winds and rain a couple of weeks back.
Most of you will also know that it’s business as usual. A little bit of water never managed to stop us in the past and it sure is not stopping us now. So if you’re not too sure about training, if you’re having doubts and don’t know who to ask if the dojo is still open… It’s still open and we’re still training following our usual time table. So come on down and join us on the matt for some mid-winter Aikido action. It will keep you warm if you do it right š
