I think most of us need to concentrate on training..not discussion.
Some of you esteemed gentlemen spend more time at the keyboard than training. You would develop more ability and understanding with more experience.
Train well,

Hi Mickey,
The idea here is bring the discussion to the mats. My experience with most "my way or the highway" sensei is that they don't practise the 'aiki' of Aikido let alone understand the concept. Some even practise taichi on the side. They are dependant on leverage, muscle power and physical atemi to make their waza work. Even with 25 years or more years training (or should I say instructing) on the mats, they can't even internalize their aikido but their
aiki-do is still legitimate thanks to Steven Seagal's movies.
Happy training
