Meidokan Dojo Grading

The Meidokan dojo held its 20th anniversary on the 13th June 2011 and a grading was held to mark this event. Congratulations to David, Jess and Jack for attaining their shodan, Daniel for 4th kyu and Gedi for passing his first 9th kyu grading.


Estella Carvalho

It is with great regret to have heard of the passing of Estella Carvalho, a former student of the Meidokan Dojo, Tokyo Senshusei course and a 4th dan Yoshinkan Aikido instructor. Estella was one of our outstanding students during the early years of Meidokan, in the time when we were still in the West Hampstead dojo.

 

She will be remembered with love and I am sure that those who knew her will ensure that her name is remembered in the Aikido community.
