We deeply thank you all for supporting the West End Dojo for nearly 30 years. As we announced, we are closing this dojo in December. We will hold a demonstration on Saturday, 30th November, and will officially shut down the dojo on Saturday, 7th December. However, Goshu-ryu Aiki Jujutsu will continue to grow under Mori Sensei's leadership, with branch dojos in Forestdale, Caloundra, Wellington Point, Holland Park, and Tokyo. OSU!
