2004 Course
- Posted : 3rd November 2004
The weekend
course on the 30th/31st of October 2004 was a great success, with Aikidoka
from Britsol, Chichester, Cardiff, Slough and other clubs joined by four or
five hardy soles who traveled all the way from Hungary. Bernard Harding
Sensei's instruction was consistently clear and precise, as we've all come
to expect from him.
