Aikido UK Grading and Course May 2010 Barrhead Sports Centre was once again the venue for our second grading and course in 2010 - held on Saturday March the 22nd. The event brought together students from all of our clubs to lend support to those sitting their grading examinations before taking part in the course taught by Sensei Andrew. In total 11 students sat their Kyu gradings and 1 sat his 3rd Dan - all passed and received high praise from their grading examiners for their performance. The course was a huge success and was enjoyed by all in attendance; with Sensei focusing on teaching about making Uke correctly and leading with Ki. Pictures from the event are available in our Gallery section. Congratulations are in order for everyone who passed their grading and to their teachers and everyone who helped them practice. Special thanks should go to Sensei Andrew, President of Aikido UK for his teaching and for organising the entire event!
