Yes folks, another pic, and another Ryu Dojo visitor takes his last class at Maihama Dokokai's Friday night high energy training. This time, Ali Ganchi set a new standard for final Friday night classes... Ali did all the shodan and yudan jiyu-waza consecutively (shite and uke) while the other members took turns wishing Ali a special sayonara via kotegaeshi, udegarami, and so on.

Sorry, this post is a little late, but just found this pic and realized I need to put it up. Yes, another Friday farewell class, with another German guest. This time Daniel Lubecki, from Munich (the only one who timed out the jump, other than Otsuka-san).
Daniel trained everyday 3 or 4 times for almost a month. Daniels last week was the hardest. Thursdays kenshu was just Ando Sensei, the uchideshi and Daniel. After 30 minutes of kihon waza, we had another 30 mins of non-stop jiyu waza. Daniel never gave up, he held in there right to the end. Good job!
P.S. I have no idea how this picture tradition began, maybe Otahara-san.

First off, a big congratulations to Ogata-kun (back row, second from the right) who recently passed his Nidan exam. Ogata has been trying as hard as possible to mix aikido with his busy school schedule for the last few years, and although limited training, he still managed to pull off a great test.
Last Friday, Gert Jungbauer from Germany (front row, second from the right) joined us for 60 mins of sweaty ukemi, jiyu-waza and various shodan waza. Gert has had a full week of training here in Urayasu, and we definetly finished the week off with a good hard class. Following the training, a few well deserved drinks at the local bar.

All Japan Yoshinkan Aikido Demonstration
Saturday, October 31st Yoshinkan Aikido Honbu Dojo hosted the 54th Annual Yoshinkan Aikido demonstration at Komazawa Olympic Stadium in Tokyo, Japan. About 700 people participated/attended, 106 of them from various Yoshinkan Aikido Ryu clubs.
Maihama Dokokai along with some members of Irifune Dokokai teamed up and won the group award for "Best club performance". Since Irifune's training is held on Tuesday's and Maihama on Friday's, it was a little tough to get everyone together to practice.
Here is our first and only practice before Saturday's demonstration.
Congratulations to everyone, and I'm already looking forward to next year!
