We love and miss our students! To better serve everyone during the extended shutdown here in Washington and elsewhere, Shinju Dojo Aikido is now offering private video lessons online. Each session will last up to one hour and will be offered for at least as long as the shutdown lasts. To participate in a session, a smartphone, tablet, or computer with video and microphone and a FaceTime, Skype, or Zoom account are needed. Our regular, paid students can schedule up to one session per week for free for the duration of the shutdown. Those who are not already members of the dojo who wish for long distance lessons can sign up for the discounted price of $25 per session. Billing will be done online and a credit card is needed for payment. Contact us at sensei@shinjujdojo.com or (360) 998-0749 for more information and to schedule your session. We hope to be back on the mat with everyone soon!  I was perusing Windsong Dojo's website and found this great resource of study guide videos for new people all the way to Sandan (3rd black belt) level.
