Dear Friends,
We are very happy to announce the opening of registration for the next Quadrennial International Conference of the International Shintaido Federation to be held in Verbania from July 2nd to July 4th 2008. It will happen within the 2008 Shintaido European Festival (July 2nd to July 7th) and will be opened to the participation of junior instructors/ni-dan holders and above. It will be followed by a European Forum (assistant/ni-kyu and above) and by a two practices/one lecture seminar of Tenshin meditation by Aoki Sensei (open to general participation).
You will find all necessary informations on the web site at http://www.shintaido.it/festival.
For more informations, please use the following e-mail addresses according to language:
- english@shintaido.net (Giovanni, David)
- french@shintaido.net (Clélie)
- italian@shintaido.net (Giovanni)
- japanese@shintaido.net (Mieko)
You may like to advertise the European Forum and the Tenshin Seminar for the participation of related members of your group. As you will see on the web site, we designed the program so that the participants to the different events might have many occasions to meet and practice together (in particular, all exams will be opened to mitori keiko).
Early registration will help the organizers a lot.
Waiting for the pleasure to meet you in Italy
