Dear fellow budoka,

I just thought I’d drop a notice into the various forums (fora?) that we have a new practice group for iaido & kenjutsu in the West Midlands (UK). We have run a Hyoho Niten Ichi Ryu kenjutsu group for the last 12 months and recently decided to add our iaido (seitei & MJER) practice to the group, under the umbrella of the British Kendo Association. No charge is made for the practice – only a small fee to help with room hire.

The dojo URL will be added to the BKA’s website in due course, and if anyone is interested in stopping by to say hello or for a little practice, you are more than welcome. We are about 15 minutes from junction 10 of the M6 motorway (about 10 miles north of Birmingham).

Please take a moment to view our website - any feedback will be highly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Scott

Hey Scott

Doesn't Heijoshin mean the mind of upper farting?

Just wanted to check....

Love

I take back everything I have ever said about you. Except the sheep/goats thing.

Thanks for the help on Saturday, btw. Really helped big time... :)

Scott,

congratulations on last nights class, and good luck with the three new students who turned up, BUT.......

please put up signs or even a searchlight. Even my computer generated route took me over an hour to find your dojo, and I only live about twenty miles away.

ps It was good to see Sam back in action, hope his leg holds out.......
