Beginner's nights all right for fighting.

Thanks to all the guys who turned up for the beginner's night, hopefull we'll see you all back at the club next Wednesday. Just a reminder to all that it'll be the first Wednesday of the month, which is 'fees night', £20 for the gainfully employed, £10 concessions. This includes all the Wednesday practices and the two Monday kata sessions. Details of all these are updated on the calendar so please keep an eye on it or add it to your RSS readers [details on the forum on how to do this, feed link below].

The next kata session is on Monday, so any beginners wishing to attend feel free. Some clubs find it can be difficult to grasp but Sensei believes there is a lot a beginner can learn which can help with the Wednesday night sessions, so come along to Chesterfield High School in Crosby, details in the Training section.

Lastly, anyone who missed Beginner's Night and still wishes to attend next week is your 'last chance to dance'. Anyone who wants to try kendo can do so but after next week, for the benefit of all the beginners, you will have to wait till our next Beginner's Night. Thanks for your understanding.

New All-singing, All-dancing Web Address

You may not know this but a while ago we had our very own Liverpoolkendo.org website address. However, we believe a female Japanese stock trader bought that, which kind of left us in the lurch. Anyway we have a spangly new website address of http://www.liverpoolkendo.co.uk the previous http://www.print-for-you.com/Liverpool_Kendo/kendo.html still works but the new one just rolls off the tongue, so tell your friends and update your browsers.

Good Luck and Well Done

Just a quickie, to the guys travelling to Reading for this years Sir Frank Bowden Taikai - good luck. I'm sure this year we have a good chance... of winning a match. Go forward and represent!

Secondly to our three beginners who after many months of perseverance, practice and sore feet, who made it into armour for the first time - well done. There's no going back now. Here is where you have to relearn everything you've been doing for the past 5 months. Oh, don't worry, in a couple of months there'll be a new crop of beginners coming so you won't be referred to as beginners for much longer.
