No class Monday, website news, Sevenoaks

admin — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 10:37:42 +0000

For those who missed the email, there will be no University class on Monday 30th August.

Website

Our website is scheduled for upgrades over the next day or two, so don’t panic if you can’t reach it.

New for those of you with a modern web-browser such as Firefox, Chrome, Safari or Opera, you can now see a convenient timeline of our regular training schedule at the top of each page:

I’ve not yet got it to work in Internet Explorer 6-8, so it’s hidden from those browsers. You can of course still refer to our existing Venues and training times page, and if you are signed-up to our mailing-list you will continue to receive email reminders about changes to the regular training schedule.

Sevenoaks

Thanks to all who attended Saturday’s course in Sevenoaks!

Upcoming Sevenoaks Course, August 21st

A morning and afternoon course is scheduled for Saturday 21st August at Sevenoaks School Dojo (directions also available as a PDF). The morning session will run 10am-12pm, the afternoon 2pm-4pm.

The course will be lead by Phil Rozier, 3rd dan Aikikai. If you cannot drive to Sevenoaks please talk to your teachers and fellow students – some have volunteered their chauffeur services!

The price for each session is £5. See you there!

Monday classes during Summer

admin — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 09:44:57 +0000

With the exception of July 5th and August 30th, Monday sessions at the University will continue through the Summer.

Unfortunately we need to pay additional fees to keep the Sport Centre open during the school holiday. We kindly ask that club-members wishing to attend Monday classes during Summer please pay £50 to cover the extra cost. But the training will be worth it!

Thank you, and see you on the mat.

Website downtime

As many of you noticed, the website was down over the weekend. Please accept our sincere apologies for this — we know a lot of students were trying to access the syllabus for their upcoming gradings!

You may experience some glitches over the next 24 hours, but after tomorrow everything should be back to normal.
