Onegai Shimasu

Onegai Shimasu: Literally, “please teach me”, used between partners before practicing or by the group at the start of the class. - from an aikido terminology webpage compliments of: http://studentorganizations.smsu.edu/aikido

Welcome to my aikido blog, a personal account of my journey.

I would first like to send my thanks to all of my senseis, past and present, as well as my sempai and fellow aikidoka, who continue to support my practice, and who tolerate my mistakes with goodwill and good humor. Thanks also to my family and my former students, who have given me the opportunity and motivation to continue.
