Aikido of Reno

Great job everyone in the evening demo and testing!

Congratulations to everyone in the youth and family class! 

Great job at the noon demo and testing! Awesome job guys. 

Good morning fine people! The practice focus this week is on:
SPIRAL LEVERAGING
We often use a spiral to move with an attacker. Use the spiral to leverage their force to create techniques that are harmonious. It feels good, and is very effective.

This week’s schedule:

Tuesday: it is CONFLICT TRANFORMATION DAY in all of the classes. We use the principles of Aikido to practice several ways of transform conflicts into resolutions. These principles apply off the mat into life scenarios. This is a good day to invite a friend.

***Wednesday: it is EVOLUTION DAY in all of the classes. We will work on your material for your next level, and free form Aikido.

***Thursday: it is Demo & Testing Day! Challenge yourself!
12 noon adults
5pm youth & family: Test or earn your stripe
6:30pm teens & adults
These classes will be at the Dojo, and on Zoom. Go for it! Demo your track. Demo stuff we worked on. EARN YOUR NEXT STRIPE! Go to the next level! Expand!!! TAKE A CHALLEGE!

***Last chance to go to the Aikido Community Seminar in Henderson! This coming week end!
