On Sunday 1st December, we took part in the British Aikido Association Northern Regional Competition. This competition saw all clubs of the northern region get together and compete in Randori No Kata, Tanto Kakarigeiko, Ninindori, Open Kata and Randori. This was our clubs first competition.

We are very proud to report that we succeeded in almost every age group and medal’d in almost all!

It was a very tough competition and our team definitely learned a lot, this gave us an understanding of what we have to work towards in preparation for the next but we accept the challenge and will be ready to do it again.

Here’s a glimpse of us and our partnered club Bradford Tomiki Aikido Club.
