From all reports he's eased up over the last few years, but it's still no picnic. I enjoy it immensely, but the concrete floor kills my feet. I have flat feet, and training on that floor has a...

You mean the one the kid was wearing that made him look like an extra from the set of the "Beat It" video? I don't know, but I want one too! :rolleyes:
For those of you talking about the history of Aikido:
The correct name of the Daito Ryu is Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu, not Aikijutsu. "Aiki" is a term and/or principle that is/was used in many koryu. ...
Unbalancing and the taking of an opponent's balance are not unique to Tomiki sensei's Shodokan style. However most Aikido schools do not use the term "kuzushi" because this is a Judo term. Tomiki...
