For beginners with Katori
Holidays are the perfect time to visit the beaches…. our dojo! Join us in August to discover that a solid Katori Shinto Ryu training beats sunbathing and grilling and at the same time develops the body and spirit 🙂 We would like to remind you that we will be conducting introductory workshops for new people. If you want to join during the summer, leave your e-mail and we will send you information about the introductory workshop. We accept people from 15 years of age. Trainings take place in a changed holiday schedule:
- Tuesdays, 20:15 - 21:45, ul. Acacia 5
- Thursdays, 18:30 - 20:00, ul. Acacia 5
Summer introductory workshops - 05.08.2023
We invite all new people who want to start their adventure with Katori Shinto-ryu to our introductory workshops. If you have recently started training and would like to improve your skills, these workshops are also for you. Our introductory workshop is 3 hours devoted to explaining the basic aspects of training and kata, which will give you a much better start to practice. This is an opportunity to gain basic information and skills that will be invaluable during regular training. Our priority is to provide you with solid foundations, thanks to which you will master the material necessary to practice the first form of kata in pairs. We would also like to inform you that this is the last workshop of this type during the holidays. He will lead the workshop Sensei Mateusz Kuduk (3'Dan) along with an assistant Sensei Arkadiusz Telma (2'Dan). Workshops will be held at 5 Akacjowa Street. Prior registration is required to participate in the workshops this link. The cost of the introductory workshop is PLN 100
