New training dojo

Our new training venue at the Showgrounds is going well.

For those of you who haven't found it yet, it is situated under the main grandstand of the Royal Hobart Showgrounds. The gates to the Showgrounds are usually open. You can drive into the main front gates near the Brooker Highway or the rear gates off Howard Road. The new dojo is situated underneath the grandstand on ground level, and the entrance door is at the back of the building. A map is available at http://www.taikodrum.com/images/map.jpg
