Greetings everyone,

On behalf of the Southern California Naginata
Federation, the Florida Naginata Dojo announces and
extends a cordial invitation to the Annual Spring
Naginata Seminar that will be held in Tallahassee, FL,
April 8-9, 2006.

The seminar will introduce beginning students to the
beautiful art of Atarashii Naginata under the
expertise of the premier instruction of Helen Nakano
Sensei (Kyoshi) and Jean Yien Sensei (Godan).

For returning students, an opportunity to refresh
and polish skills as well as advance to the next level
in your personal training will be provided.

We will cover the basics (kamae, ashi-sabaki, basic
strikes and blocks) and as proficiency increases
training will progress to uchikaeshi, Shikake-Oji, and
bogu practice.

accommodations this year; however, in searching the
internet, the La Quinta South is offering an internet
special of $87.00 (plus taxes) per night for single
rooms and $81.00 (plus taxes) per night for double
rooms. This is the hotel that I have booked for
Nakano Sensei and Yien Sensei. If you anticipate
coming to the seminar, I encourage you to make your
reservations soon as there is no indication of how
long these rates will be available. Reservations can
be cancelled up to 6PM the day of arrival.
