The recreation centre requires that all students be accounted for from the first lesson of each cycle. As our Aikido programme is on-going, members of our dojo are encouraged to pre-registered for each new cycle. Currently,
students are reminded to register for each new cycle two weeks before
the end of each cycle. Post-dated
cheques may be submitted to me or Mrs. Oei (Kathy). Register at the Gordon Head Recreation Centre reception counter, or online at http://recreation.saanich.ca/reconline/Start/ ---------------------------------------------- Grading Tests This year, there will be four Grading Tests; Please Note:
Students are required to practice at least: Practice hours, ideally, should be continuous uninterrupted practice. Hours are not cumulative over weeks or months of inactivity. This is necessary, as with all skills, to enable the student to refine and develop fluency in his/her knowledge, balance and technique in the art. If a student is absent for six months or more, the student will revert back to the level of white belt until the student demonstrates the ability to perform at his/her previous level. Only students who are ready and eligible for grading will be invited to apply to be graded. No video recording or photography will be allowed during Grading Tests.
