ASD / ASU Summer Camp 2024

July 3th – 7th

Join Aikido Shobukan Dojo for our annual Summer Camp. This year it will start on Wednesday July 3rd and run through July 7th.

We’re excited to welcome back Saotome Sensei and Gleason Sensei as our lead instructors. They will be joined by other senior ASU Instructors including Stephane Le Derf from France to fill out 5 full days of training.

Classes will be held indoors and outdoors, with several weapons workshops intended just for yudansha and some open to all. This will be an exciting and memorable opportunity to train with these Shihan together.

This event is limited to 60 participants and begins on 7/3 at10am Wednesday morning.
