Welcome to the Rising Stars Site

To maintain the safety of all our stars, sensei's & volunteers I have just attended a conference on 'Playing Safe'.

The conference was well attended, with a variety of sports being represented. Areas covered were;
  • Vetting & Barring
  • How safe is your club?
  • Safe Sport when away from home
  • Safeguarding procedures

After the course we then attended a BAB Child protection meeting. It was good to meet members of the BAB and discuss the BAB Child protection policy.

The Rising Stars Aikido is a member of the United Traditional Aikido Association which has now become a member of the British Aikido Board,  the governing body for Aikido throughout Great Britain.

As we are now members of the BAB we are going to apply for 'CLUBMARK' recognition. 

If you have any suggestions as to how we can improve or add to the site or the club then please email me at;

sensei@risingstarsaikido.org.uk

Email me and let me know which is your favourite game.

Make sure you check out this site every week to see what's new and what's happening.

REMEMBER. Never use Aikido in school or to show off to your friends. Aikido is for self-defence and when we train it is to better ourselves and not to harm others.

Aikido is all about having fun.

Sensei Helena 'H' Benge-Nilsdotter, 2nd Dan.
