Current Training Focus
Hi everyone,
What's your current focus in your aikido training? -- Jun |
Correct feeling.
|
Tsukuri
|
Complete control of my own agressivenes
|
Blending. I'm feeling sooo stupid and very inadequate right now.
|
That instant of contact; how to genuinly connect center to center, maintain it without struggle and be sensitive to the shifting en/yo cycle, the sometimes soft, sometimes forceful dynamic occuring naturally in the moment. ;)
|
My main focus is being thankful that I am still learning and continuing to get on the mat and then find my way home again.

Current Training Focus
figuring out why i have so much trouble performing ikkyo on more experienced partners
keeping my stupid wrist brace velcro'd on not talking ukemi: giving spirited attacks every time (the falling part is usually fine) |
short list
1. Stay flexible.
2. Remember all ken and jo kata and aiki-ken and aiki-jo movements. 3. Remain cool when students who show up once a month complain that they're not improving. |
Softness!
|
To get physically better so I can drive to and from practice.
Not to rip and tear the muscles and tendons of my partners because I am using my muscles instead of gaging the muscle tension in my partners. Generally, keeping the room from spinning like an airplane spiraling into a devastaing crash while I take ukemi. Waking up each day to know I have the chance to try to practice Aikido either with my friends in class, or study on my own. Everything after that ... is easy. |
I've been working on having more fun, not criticizing myself in the moment.
|
Show up, relax, breathe, and enjoy myself. The rest is just doing whatever Sensei tells me to do.
Until again, Lynn |
Enjoying training and leaving the dojo with the feeling that I learnt something.
Happy training all :) |
Been focusing a lot lately on more precise footwork, as well as centering and moving from my hips. That and
zanshin. |
Focus not letting my mind wonder.
Also being stable! |
