Re: Disabled students

In our dojo is a guy who's half body was paralyzed due to a car accident, when he began with us, he just could move his left arm a little and limps on his left leg. The aikido was great for him, more than any rehabilitation, because it forces him to move his left part of the body without thinking.
I found also the case of a 12 year old girl who was in a wheelchair when she began, you can read that in the interview of Nelson Requena Sensei, it is in spanish, but there is a translator .
