Smile Why I keep coming back

Laughing and smiling is one thing I love about practicing aikido!

Classes at my dojo aren't deadly serious affairs - there's laughter, smiling, encouragement, coaching. It's a fantastic atmosphere!

I've never been in an environment before, where everyone is willing to help and encourage. It's wonderful.

I've been practicing for about three months or so, and I still feel totally clueless sometimes, but never really discouraged, and that's becasue of the people I train with.
