Heyall!
Last night's class was terrific; not that we were doing anything special, we just seemed to have a great time doing it. The Randori at the end was insanely fun; a combination of practicing ma-ai (which still goes straight out the window on me..hee hee!), techniques learned, and modifying/making things up as the situation requires. (I could do randori ALL DAY! :D ) I had a particularly good time trying to use the techniques in Taigi#4 to it. (Emphasis on trying. lol)
Anyway, the question: We're always asking what people think is the most important part of aikido, or the most effective, or the hardest, so what about the funnest?
What part or aspect of Aikido is the most fun for you?
For me (as I already said :) ) it's Randori - I'm grinning like a Cheshire maniac whenever I manage to get 2 or more ukes to collide mid-mat! Hee hee!

The first time I did a high fall. It was the scariest and funnest thing I've ever done.
