Dear all,

The reality in an aikido dojo or any martial art dojo for that matter is that there are people who continue to wear their ego despite attaining high dan grades.

I have seen an instructor putting a san-kyo lock on his student with one hand and then looked into the mirrors to adjust his hair while the student was tapping out in pain. I showed my disgust with feet. I walked out of the dojo and told myself never to train with this guy again.

IMO, the guy did not have the (aikido) skill to match his ego in the first place.

Regards

David
