Satomi Kai Aikido are excited to announce the opening of a new midweek classes on Thursdays at the Norton Village Hall.

Currently, as well as local members, we have many people travelling from as far East of Stowmarket as Felixstowe. It’s hoped that having another venue West of Stowmarket will encourage many new people from that area to come and try Aikido too.

At the same time extra availability encourages existing club members to increase their training as they get closer to achieving black belts of their own.
Training will include a combination empty-hand technique, along with weapons including sword, staff and knife, all practiced in a safe and friendly environment. The lower hire costs also mean that new classes will also be longer, now running for two hours for the same price as the current 90 minute mid-week class.
The venue has the additional advantage of being situated very near an excellent pub, for thorough post-training evaluation, and contemplation.
A new class is always a great time to start something new, and with the evenings growing longer, there’s never been a better time to see what Aikido is all about.  Please come along and give it a try.

These new classes will be taught by Sensei Adrian Munteanu (3rd Dan Aikikai). Sensei Adrian has a great deal of experience and has trained Aikido in many countries around the world. He is also fully DBS checked and first aid qualified.
Beginners are always welcome, and the first lesson is completely free – you don’t even need to be a member of the Leisure Centre. Just wear something loose and comfortable, be open minded, and ready for a fun evening.
