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

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.

As usual he is caught in the middle of the conflict. More about the film at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yojimbo_(film)
