Toronto Aikikai together with Brampton Aikikai are happy to invite you and your child to participate in the first of two Children Aikido Seminars planned for 2013, the first one in April at Brampton Aikikai and the second one in October at Toronto Aikikai.

Classes - The first seminar will take place on Sunday April 14, and children, their parents, Aikido students and instructors from both dojos will be participating in three fun-filled Aikido classes, the first two from 10:00 am to 11:00 am and 11:15 am to 12:15 pm focusing on simple Aikido techniques, and the third one from 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm focusing on Aikido and Games. A light lunch wil follow from 1:30 to 2:00 pm.
The seminar is open to children, their parents, dojo members and visitors, and no previous experience is required. All classes normally scheduled at Toronto Aikikai are cancelled that day.

Instructors - The classes will be taught by the Children Class instructors from both dojos, including Yelitza, Basia, Slawek and myself from our dojo and Tony, Ray and Richard from Brampton Aikikai. Advanced students from both dojos are welcome to assist with the instruction.

Cost - The cost for participation in the seminar is $25, which includes the classes and lunch.

Lunch - Lunch will be from 1:30 until 2:00 pm, and will consist of pizza, snacks, oranges, juice and anything else parents may bring. Lunch is included in the cost of the seminar, and if you are a parent and will come but will not be participating in the classes, please consider bringing something to contribute to the lunch. If the weather is nice the lunch will be outdoors, otherwise it will be indoors. Please let us know if your child has a food allergy of any type.
