Aikido in Beijing

Devin and I were really hopeful that we'd find Aikido in Beijing. It exists. It even exists relatively close to our house, I came to find out. It has, however, suffered under the Olympic preparations that have gripped this city and is temporarily not happening. Apparently the space this particular dojo uses for practice is being rented out for the duration of the games (as well as during the Paralympics that are in September). So, we're out of luck for now. I don't know what we'll be doing in October (there seems to be travel in our future), but if we're in Beijing for any length of time, hopefully we'll have a chance to continue with our practice.
