We're delighted to round off the 2009 training year by training with Michael Pearce. Michael's lived and trained in Noda since 1991. He's a member of Noguchi Shihan's dojo.  Michael's experience and understanding of Hatsumi Sensei's art runs deep. He's earned goodwill among the world's Shihan through his generosity in offerring assistance to those in need in Noda.

Michael visits Sydney yearly and each time has expressed his respect for Australian practitioners grasp of taijutsu basics. Hatsumi sensei used Michael regularly as his Uke throughout the 90's - and continues to pick on him from time to time when he needs someone he can tie into knots.

Training will be held in the Sydney and Newcastle dojos.  The Newcastle Dojo - Mayfield dojo - on the Saturday.  The Sydney - Hunters Hill Dojo - on the Sunday. Session costs will be $120 for the weekend, $70 for one day.  Participants RSVPing up till one week prior to the training you will receive a $10.00 per day discount.
