The course for life savers

Pictures of our events 5. 7. 2021 by Jan Macháček

For us, first aid is not just a professional skill that our teachers and assistants need for their work. First aid is also an attitude towards life and other people – interest, courage, communication, skillfulness…
So, together with excelent PrPom, we again organized an experiential first aid course for our team and our young aikidokas.
The theory was dense and the model situations were tense – but in the end we managed it and still enjoyed it. Take a look at the photos!

We really enjoyed it all – you can join us next time!

In June, another company team tried out aikido as well as Japanese sword traning with us, exploring aikido principles and their use in everyday life. In the morning we exercised a lot and after a good lunch we had a bit easier time – because one of the aims for the participants was to rest from their heavy workload.
