New Year message
Sensei Margaret wishes all members and their families a very Happy New Year, and hopes everyone remained safe during the recent storms — Scotland in particular saw some significant snowfall.
As we begin 2026 there is much to look forward to. The course calendar is full, with opportunities for students at every level to train, test themselves, and deepen their understanding of Ki Aikido. Whether you are preparing for your first grading or refining technique at senior level, there is something for everyone in the months ahead.
The Federation continues to grow, with clubs across the country welcoming new members. If you know someone who has been curious about Aikido, the New Year is the perfect time to invite them along to a class. No special equipment is needed — just comfortable clothing and a willingness to learn.
