The second named storm of the year hit the UK on Thursday and unfortunately prior to class on Friday evening we discovered that we were no exception to the damage caused by the high winds and torrential rain brought by storm Bronagh.

2018 Dan Gradings
Today the United Kingdom Aikikai held it's dan gradings at Worcester University.
It is our pleasure to announce two members of Ren Shin Kan deserving of recognition.

Peter Brady 7th Dan Shihan
As some of you will know Peter Brady Shihan recently passed away.
Peter will be sorely missed at Ren Shin Kan as well as many other dojos within not only the UKA but other UK and international dojos. He faced his illness with great fortitude and his usual good humour and his loss is keenly felt by us all.
His funeral is this Thursday 26th July and there will be no classes at RSK that evening as a mark of respect.
Classes will resume on Friday when a minutes silence will be held in Peters memory at the beginning of the session.
