Don't let the name fool you - this is an excellent and fun weekend. Hosted by the Peterborough Chokushin Aikijujutsu Kai, this weekend course provides an opportunity for students of all styles to train and socialize together in a co-operative and non-competitive manner.

The majority of participants and instructors come from the three Chokushin clubs (Peterborough, Lakefield and Waterloo) and Jitsu Canada. Training is mostly in the two styles of jiu jitsu although a variety of other martial arts are also taught - e.g. bojutsu, jojutsu, hanbo jutsu, kenjutsu, tai chi, aikido, karate. There are also a number of other activities - rock & tree climbing, abseiling, knife throwing, and of course, swimming in the lake

If you wish to arrive on Friday night feel free to show up, set up your tent and socialize (there is a large cabin for the evening). After breakfast at a nearby restaurant, training officially starts at 10am on the Saturday. Lunch and dinner is provided on the Saturday, as is breakfast and lunch on the Sunday.

Training runs all day Saturday and Sunday morning. Training outdoors provides a new perspective and is an excellent experience.

You should bring camping gear (tent, sleeping bag, mess kit, etc.), food to barbeque for Friday night if required and money for breakfast on Saturday morning, old clothes for training, drinks for the two nights, and a towell and swimsuit.

Anyone wanting to attend must contact Andy by e-mail at least one week before.
