ZATAR Grading
Zen Airurando Tomiki Aikido Renmei held our first offical grading on the 26th February 2011 in Queens University, Belfast. The Grading panel consisted of Brendan Gunn 3rd Dan, Mal O’ Connor 2nd Dan, Keith Mc Clean 2nd Dan and Marty Knocker 2nd Dan.
The technical standard of the students’ katas on the day was very high from beginners all the way to 1st Dan. Congratulations to all aikidoka who graded as your hard work and dedication towards training paid off.

Rising Dawn Seminar
I would like to thank the instructors and members of Tallaght Tomiki Aikido Ryu for organising and hosting the first Zen Eikoku Tomiki Aikido Renmei course in the Repubic of Ireland. The attendance was fantastic with most of the Tomiki based Aikido clubs both north and south in attendance.
2010 is the year that ZETAR come of age with two fantastic courses being held, South of the River Folkestone and Rising Dawn Dublin.
