The energy was flowing at our 2006 Spring Seminar with Berthiaume Sensei. New England Aikikai instructors Vu Ha Shidoin and Shakoda Neil Fukushidoin also taught classes. Josh Layton came out with Berthiaume Sensei from Aikido de la Montagne and took lots of ukemi. Check out the images and videoclips below.
We now have a dvd of all Aikido classes, the 14 count Kumijo and the Toyama Ryu Iaido class from the May 2006 seminar with Berthiaume Sensei. Cost for the dvd is $20.

Close to 80 members of Aikido dojos in the Portland area practiced together at Two Rivers Aikikai on Saturday afternoon, March 18, 2006 in a benefit for the Oregon Food Bank. Seven different instructors taught 30 minute segments over the course of the afternoon. Participants brought 398 pounds of food and $301 in cash donations for OFB. The wonderful atmosphere and enthusiastic energy on the mat all afternoon attests to the spirit of Aikido in Portland dojos. The members of Two Rivers Aikikai appreciate the contributions everyone brought to our dojo. We look forward to seeing you on the mat again soon!
