A group picture of Jin Sei Ryu Chicago at the regional NWMAF conference, Weaving Strength (sorry Ruby and Sensei Sam we didn't take a pic Saturday!).

And a little candid photo of Jazz and Isabel practicing a jujitsu pin they just learned.

A great time was had by all. We all took classes in different martial arts styles, Amy and Kyren networked with our friends and colleagues in ESD, martial arts, and healing arts. And Amy and Kyren taught a class on supporting Gender diversity and neurodiversity in martial arts, self-defense, and healing arts schools. A good mix of teaching and learning.

A very healing and empowering experience. Thanks again to everyone who worked together to make the event happen and thanks for such a warm welcome to your sibling and cousin arts.

We’re so proud of how much progress every student has made!
