Clear your Diaries!

Next month Taiseidokai will be playing host to the new National Kendo Coach, Matsumoto Sensei, Nanadan Kyoshi.

Matsumoto Sensei visited Scotland 23 years ago and expressed a keen interest in visiting again, so it would be nice if as many people as possible from all Scottish Dojo were to attend and show how Kendo has grown since Matsumoto Sensei's last visit.

The visit is being timed to coincide with the next monthly All Scotland Stirling Practice.

A provisional schedule is as follows;

Friday 5th October Keiko 2000-2100 Kelvinhall
Saturday 6th October Sensei's choice 1000-1200 University of Stirling
Sunday 7th October as above 1130-1330 Bellahouston Sports Centre

I hope that everybody that is able will make the effort to attend as Matsumoto Sensei is a first class teacher.
