Please join us for our annual Instructors Intensive, to be held July 17-19, 2020.
This seminar will be for people who currently are instructors, and also anyone who has a wish to become an instructor in the future. Participation is open to not only Aikido Shimbokukai members and supporting members, but also to Aikidoists of any affiliation and lineage.
Rather than focus on how to do techniques, the content of the seminar will focus on developing instruction skills, improving the transmission of Aikido technique and philosophy, growing and maintaining a dojo, and other aspects of running a successful dojo. All participants will have the opportunity to interact with each other, share ideas, teaching methods and dojo management methods. We will, of course, have ample training time together as well!
The venue for the seminar this year will be the Abiding Spirit Center, in Crystal Lake, IL. There are many hotels near the dojo, so it should be easy to find accommodations that fit your needs and budget.
The schedule will be as follows:
Friday, July 17
6-8:00pm Training
Saturday, July 18
9:30-12:30 Training
12:30-2:30 Lunch
2:30-5:30 Training
6:30 Dinner Party
Sunday, July 19
9:30-1:00 Training
Close of workshop. Those available are welcome to go for lunch together.
Participation Fee:
All Days $75 for Shimbokukai Members and Supporting Members
All Days $100 for non-members
Saturday Dinner Party $20.00 (restaurant TBD, but will be able to accommodate various dietary requirements)
