As christmas is coming up we all getting busy with preparation. Watching the recent number of participants at training, I made us some change in the timetable.

As from now on mindfulness session the second Tuesday at Loders Dojo is practical Jiu-Jitsu training again and the class will be extended to 8.30 pm.

As a reaction to falling numbers attending the training now the two hour sessions at the Loders dojo will be now 7pm to 8.30 pm.
