Gassuku hosted by Todo Kai in Nanaimo

Hello all, a message from Peter Gunstone Sensei, head of Todo Kai in Nanaimo:

We are happy to announce that we will be hosting a return to gasshuku on August 17/24. It will be in Ladysmith at the Aggie hall starting at 10a.m. with a morning and afternoon session and, of course, we will be having the traditional dojo lunch. That evening, my wife and I will host a bbq dinner at our home. We hope that many will pitch a tent in our yard.(Hiro Sensei will have the guest room in our house). We are still working on final details and will supply more detail at the Vancouver seminar in June.

Peter and Todoka
