Free Aiki Dojo and Golden Bears Aikido training schedule for the week of February 23rd

Our class at the Suitcase Clinic was a wonderful success! Around fourty homeless women, kids, and volunteers participated, while others watched and enjoyed, while much was learned by all.

Our coordinator at the Clinic was incredibly together, welcoming, and had this to say after:

I wanted to thank you and your team for coming out tonight! It was truly amazing seeing everyone learn and interact with each other. We got some great participation from the women at the clinic, as well as many volunteers from The Suitcase Clinic. This was the best Fun Friday turn out we have ever had! I hope you enjoyed this experience as much as we did.
