Yawara Ryu Magdeburg at the Honbu Dojo

We had the pleasure to have Sensei Anja and her students from Magdeburg here at the Honbu Dojo. From February 1st to 5th the dojo floor was burning! All of the students were so enthusiastic and inspiring during their training sessions. While Shihan Jhonny was busy with some students preparing for the next step in Chi Ryu Aiki-Jitsu Shihan Kathrin had the pleasure to teach Cedric (12 years) in Okinawa Kobudo. This were his first steps into a new style and he obviously liked it a lot. We were able to learn a whole new kata during the week. 

During the Iaido sessions with Shihan Kathrin the group focussed a lot on detail work for Seitei Iai Kata “Mae”, Ushiro” and “Ukenagashi”. While some of the students had their first encounter with an Iaito others already worked on advanced techniques. Climax of the week were the examinations in Chi Ryu Aiki-Jitsu.

Congratulations to all students with your terrific achievements!!!

Jan-Marc Pohl (1st Kyu Chi Ryu Aiki-Jitsu)

Thomas Wuttke (3rd Kyu Chi Ryu Aiki-Jitsu)

Martin Losse (5th Kyu Chi Ryu Aiki-Jitsu)

Theresa Maienschein (6th Kyu Chi Ryu Aiki-Jitsu)

 

Last but not least many of the students took part in Shihan Kathrin’s fitness classes and we literally rocked the floor!
