The seminar will also serve as a work weekend for final dismantling of the dojo’s interior. As previously announced, Chicago Aikikai must move by the end of June (for more info, see our Dojo Move page). It is our hope that dojo members, together with volunteers among seminar guests, will be able to complete the final take-down of interior features and loading for transport (to locations for short/long-term storage and training). Any assistance available will be greatly appreciated.
