Follow-Up Cleveland Seminar:
Due to the wild success of the
Cleveland seminar in February, 2007, a follow-up
seminar has been scheduled for the weekend of June 30th, 2007. Sensei Freeman and
Three Rivers Aikido would like to extend a special thanks to Vladimir Soroka,
Dojo Cho of Three Streams Aikido, Cleveland for organizing and hosting the
February event. Vladimir Soroka has been a long standing personal student of
Sensei Elliot Freeman and all of Three Rivers Aikido and our extended families
would like to congratulate Soroka Sensei for his opening of the newest Tenshin dojo
under Sensei Freeman. As a result of the wide interest in Sensei Freeman's Randori
Seminars, the June 30th seminar will focus on its unique deflection systems on
Friday and Saturday and will continue on Sunday with different multiple attack
principles and scenarios. The June seminar will review and expand on techniques
from the basics to Tenshin's special insight on randori.
For details on the June seminar, check out the
Three Streams Aikido website.
Visit with Seagal Sensei:
On November 17th, 2006, Freeman Sensei along with Angulo Sensei and Mr.
Infante from Tenshin dojo in Miami visited
with Seagal Sensei at his home in Los Angeles and discussed the future and
direction of Tenshin Aikido. Among the things which were discussed was the need
for regular training with Seagal Sensei, and to this end a seminar has been
tentatively scheduled for the weekend of March 16th in Los Angeles, CA.

On a somewhat unpleasant note, it has come to the attention of Seagal Sensei
that a former student of his has chosen to act in a less than ethical manner in
an attempt to obtain rank from Hombu dojo. Seagal Sensei has written a
letter to Hombu dojo concerning the matter, and a copy of it can be seen
here.
Three Rivers Aikido East Seminar:
Sensei Freeman will help celebrate the opening of the Three Rivers Aikido East
dojo in Effingham, IL on Saturday, March
17th, 2007. For details, check out the
Three Rivers Aikido East website.
Cleveland Seminar:
Sensei Freeman will be teaching a seminar in
Cleveland Friday, February 23rd, Saturday,
February 24th and Sunday, February 25th. Sensei Freeman’s seminars are an
annual event not to be missed. He has earned a reputation both here and abroad
for teaching single and multiple attack scenarios that are simple, realistic
and effective. This seminar traditionally covers a large scope of
Tenshin Aikido, from basic through advanced techniques. For details, click
