Dojo News.  Kata practice in November was better. Bob, Shushi, Barry and I were there.  Next practice is Dec 14th, 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. Anybody interested in ever attaining any rank in kendo, better start coming to these practices.

Holiday party December 15th ! Our annual Christmas/Holiday potluck party will be on Sunday December 15th. Practice will start at 3:00 p.m. and go to 5:30, half hour for showers, and then we start the party !  Bring a dish to pass, I'll provide beverages, and the cups & plates. Bring your family.....or tell them to show up at 6:00 p.m.
Things have been quiet lately- Not much going on lately, I'm afraid we've been lax at attending any tournaments. It seems our get up and go has gotten up and gone somewhere without us. The club has shrinking a bit lately also. I've noticed a few people have been invisible lately. You know who I mean.....That's all right, the people who are attending are getting a lot better, and some truants will be very surprised when they come back.

Upcoming Events......

Each month I'll have a quote from Golf and Sports psychologist Dr. Bob Rotello.  Notice its similarities to kendo.

GOLFER'S CORNER

" Some players are analytical thinkers. They respond best to a long discussion of new techniques and why they work."

Dr. Bob Rotello has numerous books on improving your golf game available. Check it out at Amazon.com
