Protective gear (bogu) is not required. Students should wear comfortable clothes. For more information, contact: hiro.ichimura@gmail.com

Advanced class: This class is for experienced kendo practitioners

who have either completed the beginner class or are able to demonstrate proficiency in the fundamentals of KENDO. Students will engage in actual combat and should bring own shinai (bamboo sword) and protective gear (bogu). Instructor approval required prior to enrollment.

AIKIDO

Aikido is a nonviolent Japanese Budo, or martial way, which enriches the life of the participant by providing tools for coping with daily challenges.

Aikido helps develop skills in stress management and conflict resolution, while having fun! This class will be geared primarily toward beginners and intermediate levels, but students of any level and physical ability are welcome to attend. Loose fitting clothing (without any metal or stiff materials) which covers arms and legs or a training uniform (preferably a judo gi) is recommended for your first session. Shugenkai is an independent dojo; therefore, all gradings and belt promotions will only be recognized within our dojo. There is no grading fee; however, students will have to pay a $5 fee for the belt.

Heartfulness means living the lightness and joy of your true nature. Experience a practical way to uncover the heart’s unlimited resources.

Enrolled children must be the minimum age by the first day of class. For grade level specifications, we do not promote children to the next grade level until the official school year begins.

A Word About Department Wait-lists

Newark Recreation and Community Services Department provides customers wait-list opportunities in the event that your class of choice is full. Should an opening occur, you will receive a phone call, at which time you will have 24 hours to respond. Should we not hear from you within the 24 hours, you will forfeit that space and we will move to the next waitlist customer.
