[Moo] [Watchtower] Fwd: Japanese Polearm class/demo

[Cian Conor MacQuaid]

Aviv Sensei (head of this school, though not the instructor of this
class) is very good. When I was trying to do Aikido in addition to
everything else I used to go there. It is a great school and I plan to
attend if at all possible.
