Join us for an informal Aikido Coffee Klatch every 2nd Wednesday at 4pm, beginning March 27th. Meetings are boring, this isn't that. Everyone welcome.

Venue:	Changed to Yukon Inn - Legends Restaurant, on April 10th.  was High Country Inn
Time:	3:45pm
Purpose:	just because

This session many Children's classes will be 1.5 hours so we have enough time to show some presentations on Japanese culture and history on the screen we have installed, also this will allow us to go outside to do weapons when the weather allows. The Adult classes now start at 6:00pm instead of 5:30pm.

As usual for the outside practice we will be in the park at the end of Cook street, next to the cliff. Sometimes we might go up the cliff as we have in the past to train in the trees area.
 
For Friday Youth class only:

Due to some professional l trips, this session will start one week after going back to school. So:

Our Annual General Meeting will be Saturday Feb 2nd at 12:00 Noon at the dojo.

It's potluck, all are welcome. The business portion is over in 1.5 hours (or else!). If you're really averse to  business, come late (but we start with dessert!). After that it's just good food, companionship and whatever else we can throw into the mix.

Also in case you missed it, the Adult Schedule is out, and used uniforms are on sale for $20ea to the end of January.

Hello Everyone, welcome to a brand new 2013 Ready or not, here it is, so roll (or fly!) with it!

The Children and Youth and Adult Schedules have been set, visit the pages for details.

For the month of January all used uniforms are on sale for $20 ea. The effort for laundry is too much, and we'd like put the space used by them to better use anyway. (You'll see what we've been up to on your next visit).

During Christmas break classes will be:

Thursday 27th Dec from 5:30 to 7:30 pm
Thursday 3rd Jan from 5:30 to 7:30 pm

Regular Adult schedule is back on Jan 7th 2013.

A gentle introduction to the physical and mental discipline of the art of Aikido

Wednesdays 5:30-6:30pm, October 17 - December 19, 10 classes
415 Baxter Street

$100 for the classes
$20 Canadian Aikido Federation annual membership
$12% discount for family members or multiple packages

We're testing a new price structure heading into winter: 12% for each additional family member that registers for a class or punch pass, plus a 12% discount for multiple activities. Cumulative. Yup, you read right, they add up. Plus, for those dedicated few that just can't get enough, spend $1000 and all classes excepting seminars for the rest of the year are free!

Why such a weird number? Well, because 10% didn't sound interesting enough, even if it is way easier to do the math, and when we ran the numbers for 15% the bank account started to creak ominously. So, it being 2012, we settled on 12% ('cause we gots computers to help with the maths! (and hey, it could have been 12.5%!)).

If it works for rest of the fall/early winter session we'll apply it to the kids classes for the next session in January too. If it really works, we'll carry through to spring.

Getting the Discounts

Register as normal, and the discounts will be applied at the the checkout stage, before invoice & payment. You may see something like the below, [Cancel: Family Discount] followed by addition of another discount.What's happening here is that the system is applying the most favourable combination, applying the discount to the most expensive registration.


We've not used the promo feature before in Amilia, so there may well be some hiccups. As always, please send comments and feedback to info@aikidoyukon.ca.

November 2nd & 3rd, Judo Yukon is having judo Olympian Antoine Valois-Fortier, who captured Bronze at 2012 London games, up for a short visit. For details see the Judo Yukon event calendar.
