Special Announcement
We regret to inform members that Shigenobu Okumura Shihan (1922-2008),
9th dan, passed away on 12 August.
Okumura Shihan visited us with Horii Sensei in the early 1980's.
Many senior members will no doubt recall his soft yet energetic
aikido.
We have conveyed our deepest condolences to Hombu and Okumura Shihan's
family on the loss of such a great Aikidoka.
For details about Okumura Shihan, members can visit the Aikido Journal
website below:

Seminar by Horii Etsuji Shihan
Horii Shihan, 6th dan, is Dojo-Cho of Sanda Dojo in Kobe, Japan.
He has visited Hong Kong many times before, and was one of the guest
instructors at our 35th anniversary in 2006. Many members would
no doubt recall Horii Shihan's very dynamic techniques and lucid
teaching.
Horii Shihan will give a special seminar on Tuesday, 23 September
from 6 to 8 p.m. at Java Road Dojo in North Point. All are welcome
to join.
For members of affiliated dojo, a mat fee of HK$40 will be charged.

Re-organization
of the Technical Committee
At its meeting on 16 May 2008, The Technical Committee (TC) agreed:
1. To confine membership of the TC to godan, yondan and sandan in
order to keep down the size of the TC for administrative reasons.
2. The Standing Committee of the Technical Committee would cease
to exist as a result of the change mentioned above.
3. All other yudanshas, together with the TC members, will form
a Yudansha Kai (YK) (¦³¬qªÌ·|),
which will meet annually in May. Ad hoc meetings will be held when
no less than ten dan grade members raise a request for meeting.
The YK is to bring up matters of common interests in regard to training
and instruction for the consideration and action of the TC.
On behalf of all members of the TC, I thank you for your support.

Notice of Suspension of
Training
Any members who want to suspend training either temporarily or on
long term are requested to inform us in writing so that we can update
our payment and training records.
For members on our auto-payment plan,
please inform us on or before 20th of the month preceding the one
you wish to stop training. For example, if you will stop training
in September, you should inform us on or before 20th of August so
that we can cancel your auto payment. We may not be able to refund
any charges made into your bank account if you fail to inform us
in good time.
For members who pay in cash or cheque,
please keep us informed in writing as soon as you can to allow us
to keep your membership status and training records updated. If
you fail to notify us, we may treat you as owing training fees to
the Association. You may have to settle the outstanding fees before
you will be allowed to train again.
If you are undecided as to how long you will suspend your training,
just tell us you want to "apply for leave until further notice".
In this case your membership will be retained until the time when
the annual membership renewal is due.
