my curiousity has gotten the best of me

[Sid Vicious]

my curiousity with Aikido has gotten the best of me. im not much into the spiritual stuff but i love the art. im the type of guy that loves to fight (but never starts them ) i think my main fascination with Aikido is just throwing people around. i love the fact that with little effort i could defend myself against a big muscle head (hopefully ) anyways, my point is that im gonna start looking for an Aikido school.

Congratulations!

 

Now there are 2 of us.

 

I would ask you to remember, you will question Aikido all the time. You will ask yourself whether it is effective, you will get beaten by an other Martial Artist that has had a similar time training. These are basic facts that I have had to get used to.

 

Focus on your one point and over time you will become not just strong but Powerful.

 

If you have any questions dont hesitate to ask.

 

Enjoy it!

 

Take Care.

thanks Kensai. how long have you been doing Aikido?

[Kensai]

Only about 6 months. Its hard to get the basics, but once they are there then you are away. I think I could apply what little I know in real life. But whether I did it with Ki or not is a very different question.

 

What styles of Aikido have you been looking at?

 

Take Care.

[Sid Vicious]

well, i haven't really been looking for a certain style. im just trying to find a school around where i live and i cant seem to find one

[Kensai]

I am sure you will find one. All Aikido styles are really similar apart from Tomiki.

 

Take Care.

Aikido can be a good thing, depending on how you train, and what type of aikido. Aikido has some highly combative styles out there, like the kind they teach the kidotai. So check your schools out carefully.
