Jen, that is a very ambitious program. I'm sure it will give much opportunity to the students. As for the Aikido component, I like that you have focused your theme on "Masakatsu Agatsu". This is a very appropriate one. I hope that your program leads many students to continue their training beyond the conclusion of the coursework.
Thanks so much for the resource ideas in your previous post! I can't wait to check it out.

So far, I'm having fairly good luck with student retention and continued good attrition. The students who sometimes do not continue in the actual classes have come up to me and mentioned stories of using aikido based on moves we did in class; sometimes physically but mostly in principle.

It will interesting to watch how things continue to develop.

Thanks again, jen
