On October 18-19, 2025, a two-day Aikido and Daitoryu seminar took place. Daitoryu is a predecessor of the martial art aikido. The event was led by our Japanese sensei Daishiro Nakajima, 7th dan, and took place in the Hermann-Uebelhör sports hall in Leopoldshafen, with 40 participants mainly from Baden-Württemberg, but also from North Rhine-Westphalia and Lower Saxony. After eating Japanese ramen soup with vegetables for lunch, Saturday evening ended with a sushi dinner at a nearby restaurant.

Our colleagues from Belgoprocess (responsible for the safe processing of radioactive waste in Belgium) are inviting us, as one of the many member institutions of ASCERI, to the Mini-Atomiade 2026. Further information can be found on the ASCERI websites.

On July 11, 2025, there were several exams for the self-protection and self-defense group in the Aikido department. First, Julijana Vidovic took her practical exam for her trainer license. In addition to components of the training such as a theoretical examination, several teaching units on didactic and pedagogical training as well as practical and technical training in training, the prospective trainer's task was to plan, prepare and conduct the youth training on this day in writing.

It was so nice!

28 active participants, 98 1 vs. 1 matches, one winner, the youngest participant 18, the oldest 4.44 times as old, even matches, a professional game system, great prizes, two new membership applications for SG KTE e.V., fun and a fair fight for every ball.

We have done it.

The first table tennis tournament of the KIT/KTE association started on 05.05.25, punctually at 5.55pm, at 21.15 the 7th round of the Swiss system was played, which means that each participant had 7 matches at the table. With each round, the next pairing is calculated, so that as the tournament progresses, the opponents are matched more and more finely and the pairings become more and more balanced.

This has a nice advantage: everyone has the same number of games, the focus is on having fun and you soon find your champion.

The winner is Lenny, an active league player from TTC Langensteinbach e.V. with a fabulous 1811 QTTR points. He is currently ranked 26th in the Baden Table Tennis Association.
