Upcoming events

There are still quite a few items coming up on the Club calendar over the next few months. First is a trip to Gin Gin in support of those attempting Kendo gradings in September and December, and to conduct a jujutsu grading. The date for this is still to be set, but likely on 27–28 August, with a Toowoomba jujutsu grading opportunity the following week.

I am also wanting to put into the calendar a once a month Saturday trip down the hill to train with Tom Johnson sensei in the morning (Iaido and Jodo) and then Takashi Itakura sensei for Kendo. We are pencilling in the first Saturday of each month for the regular training trip.

Next are the QKR regional gradings in September, the first being hosted by us on Saturday 17 September, the second in Townsville on Sunday 25 September, which I will be heading up to support.

And to round out the big Toowoomba QKR year, we are scheduled to host the December seminar and grading, with a date to be confirmed, but likely the first weekend of December.

As always, we will put notice of any class changes prompted by these commitments via our discussion channels and through the Budo Blog, and if in doubt, please talk with your instructor or discipline coordinator.
