What ever became of Ando Sensei's web site: aikido-videos.com?
Was that shut down for good? Or will he resume it?

Subject: [Yoshinkan] Ando Sensei - Canada Seminar 2009
Hello Everyone:
Tsuneo Ando Sensei's long awaited return to Canada has arrived. He is
returning for a series of seminars and demonstration in Ontario. Ando Sensei
will be teaching in Windsor (Seikokan Dojo - contact Mark Lemmon) June 25;
London (Aikido London - contact Ashley Hennessy) June 26; and Barrie (Aikido
Hiryukan - contact Stephen Ohlman) June 27-28. Please contact the respective
dojos for more details regarding space availability. Aikido Hiryukan will
host Ando Sensei on June 27-28 for a series of 5 classes, and a
demonstration not to be missed. Classes will be held at Georgian College in
Barrie and College Residence are available at reasonable rates.
It is truly rare to see let alone train under such a respected aikido
master. Ando Sensei is sought after worldwide for his teaching. About 4
times a year he leaves his dojos of some 800 students (and growing) in
Japan, to share his knowledge, skill and wisdom with those who may not
otherwise get the chance. This is Ando Sensei's first trip to Canada since
being appointed to the position of Shuseki Shihan (Technical Director of the
Yoshinkan). Everyone interested in developing their aikido technical skills
should not miss this great opportunity. Ando Sensei's ability to teach
aikido in simple yet inspiring terms is matched only by his power to
motivate and the contagious enthusiasm he has for the perfection of his art.
His demonstration of technique embodies the dynamic power of aikido, once
seen from the late Gozo Shioda Sensei.
This is a must attend event for any serious Yoshinkan Aikido practitioner!
