Hajijemashite; brand-spanking new to aikido

I'm not sure how appropriate the AikiWeb forums are for someone who just took one class in aikido (and intends to continue). It was a very fun experience; sensei and sempai were exceptionally welcoming and helpful. I haven't trained in any other martial arts before.

The road is long ... and I have hardly stepped on it.

Hi Maxwell,

Welcome to AikiWeb. Anyone, regardless of experience, is welcome here.

Welcome!

You are doing better than me. I am still squabilling with myself over what to do.

Hope you have a lifetime of aikido enjoyment.

If my seniors strive to be such dedicated teachers, I can only strive to be a more dedicated student.

Max, welcome to aikido. Just relax and enjoy the journey.

Kane, get on the mat and taste it!
