On August 17th, Torrance Aikido Club members and their families came together for this year’s summer potluck party. Our president, Juan, kindly let us use the backyard of his house to host the event.
We chatted, enjoyed a variety of foods, and drank delicious craft beers under nice shade of trees in sunny summer day. Thank you everyone for coming to the party, and special thanks for Juan and his family!
Torrance Aikido Club brought in the New Year with our Kagami Biraki ceremony on January 7th. Chinn sensei, chief instructor of Southern California Ki Society, blessed the dojo, then leaded the students for Misogi bell chanting. After the class, members enjoyed the new year with sushi, rice cake, tea, and other goodies. Happy new year for Torrance Aikido Club!
