Yukon Aikido – Spreading the Peace
Bryan Green, 3rd Kyu, has been sharing his passion for Aikido with Yukoners since January of 2009.
Bryan has been training in the St. Elias Community School Gym, using mats acquired by Richard Clark, who taught Judo in Haines Junction and who now attends Bryan’s classes. Callum’s mom is working to find a dojo space in town, and classes will resume in the Fall.
Kids classes are very well attended, with 4-8 students per class, ages 5-10 years.
Adult classes are held once or twice a week, with 2 students in regular attendance.
Bryan’s most avid student is Callum Cowie-Weir, age 5, whose effort and discipline is worth recognition.
Bryan hopes to begin fundraising for a trip to Japan for the summer of 2010 where he will pursue intensive training and testing.
