Dear Neighbors,
Happy New Year!
I’m writing to let you know about a great organization that I’ve been involved with for the past eleven years. This group of community members have been supportive and a second family to me. I have learned to be assertive yet yielding along with so many other countless things. I fell in love with the beauty, feeling and concept of Aikido.

Aikido training teaches children how to become calm under stress and learn bully awareness and prevention skills. It is a non-competitive martial art that emphasizes circular evasions rather than strikes or kicks.

Thanks and see you on the mat,
