Special Covid 19 announcement

Dear aikido friends

It is with heavy hearts that we have come to the decision to cancel the International Aikido Seminar in le Vigan this summer 2020. 

As you may imagine, the sanitary situation in the world, as well as the various government instructions have led us to this decision.
Even though we are not strictly affilitated to the French Aikido Federations, we have to respect the guidance provided by the various authorities which regulate our activities. These intervene in context which go far beyond the sole world of Aikido.
It is a difficult decision, taken by majority’s bureau members, after a long reunion.

We have of course communicated with Ikeda Sensei, himself staying home in Boulder Colorado; in order to communicate this unfortunate decision.

Concerning association memberships, they remain open until May 31st.
We propose the option for those who have already become members to:
- either to reimburse your membership on demand
- or to extend your current membership to the next year.

We will organize this coming fall a general assembly, to be held via videoconference.

We hope to meet each and every one of you in a happier context next year, which will be the opportunity to celebrate the 30 years of the association; under the guidance of Ikeda Sensei.

Please good take care of yourself and stay safe.

The Aikido Harmonie Team
