Dear Everybody,

   Here is the tentative list of aikido events that will take place at the 
Arnolds in March.

Randori No Kata (basic 17) Youth Coed 16 and under
Jo Kata (21 step kata) Youth Coed 16 and under
Paired Weapons Kata Youth Coed 16 and under
Randori No Kata (basic 17) Adult (Kyu Rank Only)
Dai San No Kata (1-16) Adult
Paired Weapons Kata Adult
Open Freestyle Kata Adult (up to 30% weapons)
Kyu Tanto Randori Adult
Open Tanto Randori (Men) Adult
Open Tanto Randori (Women) Adult
Open Toshu Randori (Men) Adult
Kon Go Dan Tai Sen Adult Mixed Team

   Please plan accordingly.

   Everybody who knows the first 16 techniques of the Dai San no Kata 
(which I taught this fall and which Charlie had to do for his Black Belt 
test) should do them at the event.  In the same way, everybody who knows 
the Junana Hon (described above as the Randori no Kata) should do them 
(black belts are not allowed to play in this event, however.)

   Also, any of you who want to be creative should put together a set of 
techniques for the Open Freestyle Kata.  As you can see, weapons are 
allowed.  As are punches, kicks, etc.

   And of course, everybody should play in every single randori event they 
are allowed to register for!  And that includes the Ko Go Dan Tai Sen events!



Yours truly,
