Aikido is the martial art of harmony.
Kagami Biraki
Saturday, January 12, 2019
1:00 - 4:00 p.m.
Kagami Biraki is a traditional New Year's celebration and ceremony in Japan. Mochi, or rice cakes, are offered as a symbol of personal reflection.
In traditional dojos, Kagami Biraki represents a Renewing of the Spirit and Rededication to Training. It is also a wish for good luck, no injuries, and a celebration of thanks for all our training partners.
Aikido of the San Juans celebrates Kagami Biraki every year in early January, with a special class for all members, family and friends; kagami biraki ceremony; and shared meal. All members and family welcome and encouraged to participate.
