Re: Aikido™ and Aiki…do. Where are we at?
On one side, there is something to the notion about a concentration on formality in lack of substance.
It rings true to me. The most important things I learned from aikido and from aiki...do were not during any kind of formal class. Generally, some sempai/sensei and I just worked something out by ourselves.
However, rank and other notions of formality help when things get bigger and bigger. I'm all about balance in this regard. YMMV
