Re: New to aikido and need some tips please

Some schools do a beginner's class and others bring the new student into the regular classes. There are advantages to both ways, but since you school does the latter, just keep showing up and your seniors will help you learn all the crazy stuff that you don't understand or can't do today. Everyone was in the same boat to start, so try not to get frustrated. Just show up and try. It will come to you.
