Martial Arts and Japanese Flower Arranging Demonstrations

Neighbors to Save Wellington Park, a local organization fighting for appropriate development of Wellington Park, is working with two local master instructors to present demonstrations of japanese flower arranging (ikebana) and martial arts, at Shintokan Dojo near downtown Woodinville. The demonstrations will be on Saturday, July 20th from 11 am to 1 pm, at the  Dojo, 19112 152nd Ave NE in Woodinville.  The dojo is near the intersection of Woodinville-Duvall Road and 156th Ave NE; admission is by donation.  This is a unique opportunity to watch Nobuku and Phil Relnick practice their arts at their dojo.  

The Ikebana demonstration by Nobuko Relnick will begin at 11 am.  Nobuko Relnick is a master teacher and artist, working with Northwest Pottery, teaching locally and offering guest lecturers at venues like the Northwest Flower and Garden Show.  

The martial arts demonstration by Phil Relnick will begin at 12 noon.  Phil Relnick is President of the Japan Martial Arts Society, a senior practitioner of Japanese martial arts who teaches and does demonstrations of martial arts at his dojo.   Young children, both boys and girls, will have the opportunity to have a safe and enjoyable hands-on play time with the instructors after the demonstrations.
