Upcoming Martial Arts Seminar: Each year, Knoxville Aikido Dojo hosts a variety of teachers from different disciplines for an all day seminar. Through this, we hope to promote further learning and understanding of the arts, as well as to share knowledge across disciplines. This year's seminar will be held October 4th. Check the schedule page, as it will be updated once the date is confirmed. We hope to see you there!Schedule of classes: 9:00 - 10:00 Registation 10:00 Parris-Ground work(Room 1) Neilson (Room 2) 11:00 Neilson (Room 1) Tissue (Room 2) 12:00 Lunch 1:00 Nuchols (Room 1) Parris (Room 2) 2:00 Welshan (Room 1) Tracey (Room 2) 3:00 Tracey (Room 1) Nuchols (Room 2) 4:00 Tissue (Room 1) Welshan (Room 2) 5:00 Close New Years Misogi (recurring): Misogi is a purification ritual where the practitioner immerses oneself in running water. We do this on a strictly voluntary basis. On January 1st at 8:00am we gather at the Townsend Y, enter into the river, and completely immerse ourselves. This is not the polar bear club where you go whooping and yelling into the water. Spend time meditating on the year behind you. Then take the good and the bad of that year and let the river wash it all away. You cannot rest on your laurels for the good done and you can't beat yourself up for mistakes made. It is a liberating experience to start the year with a clean slate, and quite a KI rush. |
