For several years the last weekend of September, our center has participated in two processions of the Harvest Festival:<\/p>\n
The theme of the tank best meets the specific demands of the organizer while remaining aligned with the promotion of Japanese culture, Aikido martial art, peace, harmony and non-competition.<\/p>\n
As with every local project, we have achieved exploits thanks to the collaboration between the project leader Eric Graf and many friends and volunteers with a big heart, thanks to the technical knowledge of the community accompanied by a zest of experimentation\u2026. Everything is always seasoned with lots of fun, meals together, fun, and funny moments with a highlight during the parades.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row – Content” _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text ol_position=”outside” admin_label=”Text – Here are our creations in recent years:” _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Helvetica Neue Light|300|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”3em” text_line_height=”1.4em” link_text_color=”#f1140e” ul_line_height=”1.4em” ol_text_color=”#000000″ header_2_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_2_text_align=”left” header_2_text_color=”#f1140e” header_2_font_size=”2.2em” header_3_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700||on|||||” header_3_text_align=”center” header_3_text_color=”#f1140e” header_3_font_size=”2em” header_3_line_height=”1.2em” header_4_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_4_text_align=”left” header_4_text_color=”#000000″ header_4_font_size=”1.8em” header_4_line_height=”1.2em” header_5_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_5_text_align=”center” header_5_text_color=”#282828″ header_5_font_size=”1.6em” header_5_line_height=”1.3em” header_6_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_6_text_align=”left” header_6_text_color=”#212121″ header_6_font_size=”1.2em” header_6_line_height=”1.3em” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”||1.5em||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”off|phone” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}” link_text_color__hover_enabled=”on|hover” link_text_color__hover=”#f1140e”]<\/p>\n

20 articulated clones accompanied our tanks on Saturday and Sunday. The 2019 theme being “insta’grappe”, our clones tell the harmful effect of too much screen time as well as the beneficial effect of the practice of Aikido: the front clone is sick because too much in video games and on his phone, the rear clone is in good shape because he practices Aikido!<\/p>\n
We distributed 3,500 flyers-mobile phones to the crowds on Saturday and Sunday. Our flowery tank decorated in Japanese style caused a sensation. On Saturday, thanks to our original ideas, we won the 2nd prize of the children’s procession![\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/dojo-ne.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/1-2019.jpg” force_fullwidth=”on” admin_label=”Image – Edition 2019″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”||6em||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”17958,17961,17979,17964,17967,17976,17970,17973″ posts_number=”8″ show_title_and_caption=”off” show_pagination=”off” _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Section – 2018 edition” module_id=”online-courses” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”10em||10em||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row – Content” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text ol_position=”outside” admin_label=”Text – 2018 edition” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ text_font=”Helvetica Neue Light|300|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”3em” text_line_height=”1.4em” link_text_color=”#f1140e” ul_line_height=”1.4em” ol_text_color=”#000000″ header_2_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_2_text_align=”left” header_2_text_color=”#f1140e” header_2_font_size=”2.2em” header_3_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700||on|||||” header_3_text_align=”center” header_3_text_color=”#f1140e” header_3_font_size=”2em” header_3_line_height=”1.2em” header_4_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_4_text_align=”left” header_4_text_color=”#000000″ header_4_font_size=”1.8em” header_4_line_height=”1.2em” header_5_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_5_text_align=”left” header_5_text_color=”#282828″ header_5_font_size=”1.3em” header_5_line_height=”1.3em” header_6_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_6_text_align=”left” header_6_text_color=”#212121″ header_6_font_size=”1.2em” header_6_line_height=”1.3em” custom_margin=”||1.5em||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”||1.5em||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”off|phone” global_module=”14335″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}” link_text_color__hover_enabled=”on|hover” link_text_color__hover=”#f1140e”]<\/p>\n

On Sunday we released the big game: around fifty participants made it possible to present our Dojo in an impressive way. The Dragon carried by 5 people led the way, followed by the children’s chariot (5mx2m) then the large chariot (5mx10m) and finally the aiki-tires and the distributors of flyers and gifts. The children’s chariot was towed by hand by two adults, while the large platform hides a chassis of motorized double axle truck that we have “tuned” by adding 4 additional wheels to the rear (invisible to spectators) to guarantee enough stability for aikidokas in action.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,2_3″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”3″ make_equal=”on” admin_label=”Row – Content” module_class=”mb-0 sm-col-2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”||6em||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”||6em||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/dojo-ne.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/12.jpg” title_text=”12″ force_fullwidth=”on” admin_label=”Image – 2016 Edition” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”||6em||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text ol_position=”outside” admin_label=”Text – Between the two processions ” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ text_font=”Helvetica Neue Light|300|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”3em” text_line_height=”1.4em” link_text_color=”#f1140e” ul_line_height=”1.4em” ol_text_color=”#000000″ header_2_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_2_text_align=”left” header_2_text_color=”#f1140e” header_2_font_size=”2.2em” header_3_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700||on|||||” header_3_text_align=”center” header_3_text_color=”#f1140e” header_3_font_size=”2em” header_3_line_height=”1.2em” header_4_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_4_text_align=”left” header_4_text_color=”#000000″ header_4_font_size=”1.8em” header_4_line_height=”1.2em” header_5_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_5_text_align=”left” header_5_text_color=”#282828″ header_5_font_size=”1.3em” header_5_line_height=”1.3em” header_6_font=”Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold|700|||||||” header_6_text_align=”left” header_6_text_color=”#212121″ header_6_font_size=”1.2em” header_6_line_height=”1.3em” custom_margin=”||1.5em||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”||1.5em||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”off|phone” global_module=”14335″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}” link_text_color__hover_enabled=”on|hover” link_text_color__hover=”#f1140e”]Between the two processions (Saturday and Sunday) we distributed around 2,500 gift samurai masks to child spectators and 3,000 Dojo flyers.<\/p>\n

Demonstrations of Aikido by children and adults were made on a moving tank of more than 10m! Our Dragon danced in front of the chariot to open the march!<\/p>\n
The construction of the tank took almost 3 months. A good number of volunteers participated. Here are some key figures:<\/p>\n
