Youth classes during Fall Term 2020


September 7, 2020

Dear youths and parents,

The COVID-19 pandemic has deeply affected all of our lives, and has had a significant effect on Toronto Aikikai. One of the difficult decisions the Youth Program instructors and I have had to face and struggle with is whether to offer Youth classes this Fall Term. In deciding what to do we considered the challenges and risk of infection that the students, the instructors, parents and everyone's families would face if we were to offer these classes at the dojo at this time.

After careful deliberation, I am pleased to let you know that we have decided to take the Youth Program Online and starting on Saturday, September 12, we will be offering five online classes a week for youth.

DOJO FEES
Given that these classes are offered only online, we have decided to reduce the regular Youth fees by approximately 30%, as follows:

Fee AIKIDO
1 month Youth online $  65
3 month Youth online $ 185
6 month Youth online $ 355

Fees are due the first week of the month, and any unused credit you may have in your account can be used first. Please send us an email to ask about your fee status.

When paying fees please use the Paypal "Donate" button below.
You do not need a Paypal account to pay, the button will accept credit cards.


Please note:
Most of the time the Paypal process works just fine, but, every now and then, it fails. We have found that this is not a problem with the button above but with Paypal itself. If you encounter this problem, the fix that has worked in every instance is to try again later. Apologies beforehand for the inconvenience if you encounter this erratic behaviour.


 
The Youth class instructors and I look forward to seeing you all again virtually soon, and if you have any questions please send us an email to TA.Dojo.Mailing@gmail.com.

Finally, thank you for your understanding and continuing support, and hope you and your family will stay safe and healthy.

Sensei
