Support Chet Valley Aikido for mats purchase

Chet Valley Aikido, a new Aikido club in Norfolk, UK. Based in Claxton Village Hall. We will be hosting a Fundraising Seminar on March 26-27, 2022. Everyone is welcome: all styles, all affiliations, all levels of experience. This seminar will be held both  in person and online via Zoom.

Chet Valley Aikido have developed a good working relationship with Claxton Village Hall, where we have our regular Monday classes from 9am-11am. Our 9 mats were kindly loaned to us for the last 4 months from another community centre, Brian Clark Room, Chedgrave, Norwich. As a club we had managed to secure £300 funding from Go For It (local council) specifically to purchase mats.

 

In mid-January, through a series of very fortunate events, we were incredibly blessed to have the opportunity to purchase 100 second hand mats at £1,200 from Sampson Sampson, 8th Dan, and Bob Bushness, 6th Dan, of the Sobell Judo Club in London.

 

We needed £900 more to commit to the mats and here Chet Valley Aikido would like to thank Nick Larkin, Roy Murray and Adrian (on behalf of West Cumbria) for putting up and lending Chet Valley Aikido the £900 collectively that meant that we were able to purchase these mats without delay.

 

We hope this fundraising seminar will help to cover some of the cost for the mats, but also for everyone to have an enjoyable time as this will be the first time ever that Michael will be instructing with the Takemusu Aikido Online Dojo and Chet Valley Aikido.
