Don’t miss this classic Japanese samurai film, to benefit Aikido at the Center on Saturday, Feb. 7th.

Benefit at the Loft Cinema, 3233 E. Speedway Blvd. Tucson

The movie plays from 2-4 pm, and Aikido at the Center will be there beforehand, from 1-2 pm, doing a demonstration and discussing Aikido. We’ll also have a table in the lobby, so if you are interested in Aikido or our dojo, someone will be on hand to answer your questions. 

“Yojimbo” is a classic Akira Kurosawa movie starring the legendary Toshiro Mifune, as a ronin (masterless samurai) who wanders into a village where there are 2 competing crime lords.  As usual he is caught in the middle of the conflict.  More about the film at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yojimbo_(film)
