I just wanted to see if any body from austin is running around this site. i visit there alot and was just wondering how kendo is done in austin

[Uhmavano]

Sure. If you have time feel free to bring your bogu and join practice in Bellmont Hall Room 502A on the University of Texas campus. Practice times for non-beginner classes are 2-4 pm Sundays, 7-9 pm Mondays and 8:30-10 pm Thursdays.

thanks for the reply and i just want to see how you teach it differently from us

[LypeReexy]

goyaman yall are a university orginisation like A&M's group is arent you?

[dhrishiasv]

We are actually two groups that practice as one. The UT Kendo Association is the student group, and then there's the Austin Kendo Doshikai for alums and others in the Austin community. The practice times, etc. are all the same, the only difference is the dues structure.

gotcha. I wasnt shure how yalls system worked(are group is not very large....). I **Beleive** we dont have to pay rental on the room at the rec we use but i might be wrong.

Goya,

Is this a university-sponsored club? ..Even if it's not, will there a problem with his being a non-student practicing on university property? (liability issues for injury?..something like that?)

[kabelshik]

The UTKA is the university club branch of our organization, however as we have both students and non-students practicing, both UTKA and AKD members sign a release form to cover the liability issue. In the case of guests though, we typically have not required them to sign a release and there has never been an issue with this.

I was just wondering if there are any age restrictions for this club, i was looking at your website, and i noticed its at gregory gym, and i'm only 15, would i be able to join?, and on a side note, how long is a semester, because its $72/semester, please repy to me as soon as possible
