The MEAC has been locked in as the venue for the Rick Beal sensei Kyudo seminar over the weekend of 21 and 22 March. The seminar will run from 9 am till 4.30pm each day.
This is the very first seminar that the Queensland Kyudo Association has run, and as mentioned previously, we are very fortunate to have someone as experienced a kyudo-ka and teacher as Beal sensei to be our guide into the world of Kyudo.
We will be running an introductory session in the morning aimed primarily at folk who have never really encountered Kyudo before, and are wonder what it is all about. It will focus on the basics of movement, posture and firing, and run from 9 am till 12 pm. The cost of this session is $20, and everyone is welcome.
As we have Beal sensei for the whole weekend, for those that might be caught by the Kyudo “bug”, you will have an extended opportunity to bed down the fundamentals that you learned on Saturday morning. Cost will be $50 for a day and $80 for both days. While there is no restriction for participation, you would get the most out of the sessions if you either have some familiarity with Kyudo, or attend the Saturday morning session.
Because of the seminar, there will not be any of the regular scheduled classes Saturday afternoon. We would love to see you along at the seminar instead!
