Re: Injuries in aikido
If I injure someone while training with them, I can't train with them any more. Seems rather arrogant to wreck a training partner, rather than to help him/her improve. Accidents do happen, but we need to take care to ensure that we still have people with whom to train. Certainly the velocity and impact with which one can be thrown should increase with one's experience and training history, but then as we get older and more brittle, things need to back off a little (even if our skills should protect us).
