DATE: Sunday 25th November TIME: 12:30 onwards
ADDRESS: Wilfred Taylor Reserve, Morphett Vale
To celebrate the last year of training and farewell the Reynella Dojo we will be having an end of year picnic.
The location contains a miniature railway, which (unless it’s too hot) should be running and might be fun for the kids. More information at http://mvrail.org.au
Please bring a plate or a drink to share.
We will be doing tameshigiri (bamboo cutting) at Zen Shin Kan in Reynella on Thursday 1st Dec, from 7pm – 8pm.
Students from all the clubs are most welcome to join us.
If you are free on the weekend before to help gather the bamboo please contact Damien on damien@gooddogdesign.com or 0409 189 387.
Dear Hokushin members and friends,
On the 9th of October we have been invited to perform a demonstration at the 2011 AKJA National Judo Championships, and the 13th Australian Masters Games Judo Event (a combined tournament). The tournament is to be held at Christian Brothers College Gym, 214 Wakefield Street, Adelaide. The demonstration will be at 12:30pm, after our regular Sunday training. This will be a great opportunity to promote our school and we would like to get as many members involved as possible.
If you would like to assist please reply so we have an idea of numbers, or come and see Takeo Sensei or myself at training.
Best wishes!
Joel Brady(豪仁先生)
Dear Hokushin Members,
As most of you would be aware, we will be demonstrating again this year at the Moon Lantern Festival on the 12th of September (part of the OzAsia Festival). The performance is scheduled from 4:00pm to 4:30pm and it will be at a site on the grassed area between the Rotunda and the Festival Theater (closer to the theater). I suggest we meet at the small driveway to the right of the main driveway into the festival theater at about 3:30pm to give time to get changed and unload equipment from the car.
To assist with preparations for the demonstration we will also be holding a tameshigiri (live cutting) session on Sunday the 28th of August. We have some mats that we can utilize, but, as always, if you know of a location where we can collect some bamboo, and have time and a suitable vehicle or trailer to transport, could you please speak to Takeo Sensei or myself.
Could all Dōjō-chō also make sure they make an announcement about this at their dōjō. This is a great opportunity to promote our school and sharpen your skills.
Please respond if you would like to take part, or speak to your Sensei at training so we have an idea of numbers.
Best wishes!
Joel (豪仁先生)
Hokushin Shinoh Ryu will be demonstrating at the Japan Cultural Day on Saturday the 23rd of July at 12:00pm at the Burnside Library.

The Reynella Neighbourhood Centre celebrated it’s 21st birthday on Sunday. Zen Shin Kan students Oli and Connor joined me in performing a demonstration during the event. We had a great crowd, and the guys performed very well.
Here are some photos from the event
Last night the students of Zen Shin Kan at Reynella, SA all tried their hand at bamboo cutting. Sensei Takeo joined us and it was a most enjoyable night. Photos
