For those starting their adventure with Katori:
September has come. Summer is slowly coming to an end. For many, this is a sad time because the school year and make-up sessions are back. Can there be a better cure for school fatigue and stress before exams than a series of solid maki-uchi cuts during a positively tiring Katori training? Registration for the beginner group lasts until September 15. Trainings take place in accordance with the current schedule for 2022 / 2023
- Mondays, 8:15 p.m. – 9:45 p.m., ul. Lubomirskiego 19 – advanced group
- Tuesdays, 20:15 – 21:45, ul. Akacjowa 5 – intermediate-advanced group

- Thursdays, 8:00 p.m. – 9:30 p.m., ul. Smolensk 7 – beginner group
Enough is enough register and come. Take sports clothes with you, and if you don't have your own bokken - Please let us knowso that we can take a spare one to a specific training session.
