BBRD is looking set to host the first Queensland Kyudo Association-sponsored seminar on the weekend of 21-22 March.
Rick Beal, 5DAN is undertaking a tour of Australia, and the March seminar is part of that journey around the country. Beal sensei is one of the highest ranked non-Japanese practitioners of the art and a frequent visitor to Australia. We are expecting attendees from as far away as Atherton, QLD and even some interstate visitors to take advantage of the two day seminar. It will also be open to the public to participate or even just watch.
The seminar will cover all aspects of Kyudo, from the formal etiquette that is central to its practice through to live fire of the Japanese yumi (bow). A formal schedule and price for the weekend will be finalised in the next fortnight, and we will be promoting the weekend at the USQ Club Muster event on 26 February.
