Kagami Biraki 2014 - Sunday, January 19th
RYA Dojo

Welcome back to the Dojo and Welcome to 2014!!!



We hope that everyone had a great and festive holiday season and are ready to jump into 2014! We're looking forward to training with you again this year and to start it off...we have KAGAMI BIRAKI on Sunday, January 19th!



The RYA Kagami Biraki will be held this year on Sunday, January 19th starting at 09:00. We invite all students and friends and family of students to come and join us at the Roppongi dojo for this important New Year celebration.



"Kagami Biraki" signifies the unveiling, or rather "breaking out," of the mirror (kagami - mirror, biraki - breaking out). The mirror, of course, stands for the reflection of our true nature, the real self. Our hope is that with each new year, the reflection will become truer to the original.



There will be a short demonstration by RYA instructors, followed by an open class and then sharing of mochi treats.



09:00 Doors Open

09:30 Introduction and Demonstration by RYA instructors

09:50 Warm-ups (open class for students, friends and family)

10:00 Open Class (students/friends/family)

10:50 Class Ends

11:00 Mochi Sharing

12:15 Finish

12:30 Doors Close



We ask that you invite your friends and family to come and join us for Kagami Biraki and also to join in the open class.



Please let us know how many people you will be bringing (including yourself) so that we can prepare refreshments.



Thank you!



Osu!
