Aikibojitsu:  Upcoming Events
12th Annual Aikibojitsu Instructors' Conference -  June 4, 5 2011

The Aikibojitsu Instructors' Conference is held each year to provide advanced instruction in Aikibojitsu on both
theoretical and technical levels, and to provide a forum for licensed instructors to discuss issues related to the
teaching of Aikibojitsu as an art form.

This year's Instructor's Conference is scheduled for the first weekend in June, Saturday and Sunday. The
Instructor's conference will be open by invitation to Aikibojitsu students ranked 2nd Kyu and higher.

This year the seminar will focus upon Complex Forms and Nodal Staff work, including interfacing Complex
Forms and general Aikibojitsu technique. Introduction to the Agate kata and other kata review will be held.

While there is no fee for the Conference itself, a donation for the Instructor Conference is requested. Donations
are also requested specifically for needed preliminary work on design and feasibility studies for the Pacific
Northwest Aiki Retreat Center (water system.)
