Re: VOE: Active Resistance

general resistance when one is a kyu rank isn't really necessary to advance one's technique. In the kyu ranks one is "learning" to be uke, and "learning" to be nage. Aikido is an educational system. As one progresses, naturally one is going to run into more and more resistance, especially at the yudansha level.

In gassho,
