I am happy to pass this invitation on to all my students.
All,
This is an excellent opportunity to meet and train with one of the most experienced (and highest ranking) non-Japanese aikido practitioners in the world. He continues to contribute meaningfully to the advancement of the art at both the technical and theoretical level, and is the driving force behind the Aikido Archive that will launch in the Fall, and for which I am curator. Frager Sensei trained with the founder, Morihei Ueshiba, and in 1968 co-founded the aikido club at UC Berkeley, now known as Golden Bears Aikido. He went on to found the Institute for Transpersonal Psychology, now known as Sofia University, which integrates aikido training as part of its curriculum.
Please consider attending his event (flier attached).
I'm happy to respond to any questions you may have.

Subject: Sept Aikido weekend
Dear friends and colleagues,
I’m attaching a flyer for an Aikido weekend I’ll be teaching on September 29-30. I hope that you can come.
Also would you please send this on to your own email lists of Aikido friends and students? Or at least mention it after class.
I’m really looking forward to going in depth in both practice and theory in how to practice Aikido while standing on the floating bridge of heaven. This has been a whole series of the most wonderful insights and discoveries of my 48 years in Aikido.
By the way, Kato sensei is scheduled to teach at Sofia (formerly ITP) on November 10-11.
Warmly,
Bob Frager
