Summer School is over 4 consecutive days with several WMAA Instructors.
The 4 days of training are equivalent to 4 months of weekly attendance, so dramatic improvements are often achieved during the week and grading practice can be done. Students attending all 4 days will have daily assessment, and should easily pass taijustsu and kobudo gradings with this practise.
Tuition will cover unarmed techniques, and weapon training through Aiki Jo and Aiki Ken practice. The pace will be deliberately slow, with techniques explained in great detail, to allow students to absorb new information over each full 6 hour day without undue fatigue.
