Thursday sessions at Monymusk
There is no Thursday session this week as the hall is being used as a polling station. Next week, 19th December, is the last session of the year and we're in the small hall 6:30-9:30pm as the bowlers will be in the main hall.
We'll restart in the New Year on 9th January which is also a bowling night, so we'll be in the small hall again and then back to the usual rooms on the 16th.

London / Surrey classes news
Classes with Mark start this week on Tuesday with Sabre and Sword, as usual. Thursday resumes at the studio near Hampton Court.
Flyers will soon be available for the summer and autumn workshops, plus all the details. However the dates are already on this blog and the venues, prices and timings are the same as last year.
Mark has asked me to run a new class here at the studio, and I am very excited about it. It will be the Short Form Study class. It is aimed at all Short Form students who would like to deepen their practice, but especially at Long Form and further-on students who feel they would like to teach a class at some point, or who already do sometimes. We will look at what the Short Form is, why we do it, what it's great for. We will revise and refine postures, get any details you have missed first time round, do applications, see the differences from Long Form. We will work through the postures week by week, as well as doing at least two whole forms and some warm ups. Also we will always take requests on which postures to study, so you can come with questions and queries. I suggest a 2 hour class, probably 7-9pm, which fits with the scheduled train here, plus 20mins at least for tea afterwards for those who have time to stay until the next train, I am hoping Monday will be possible. I will work out timings and dates soon, and post them later. For now, just let me know at class or by email if you'd like to come along. It would be every 2 weeks, or sometimes every 3, if a bank holiday or travel impinges. And like the Wednesday advanced study group, it's no problem if you can't always make it along as it will be on a drop-in basis, costing £10. I can probably get this class started by the end of the month.
This is the content of the class I have been teaching in Aberdeenshire on a Saturday afternoon for over a decade, and we have found so much richness in the Short Form, and so any things we didn't know we didn't know! I look forward to sharing my passion for this superb practice with the southern posse now, too. For added authenticity, we may even add cake to the mix.
