"Tessu was also of the view that it was more important to have one student who was of high quality, than many poor quality students. I think I'd agree."
No doubt that would be ideal. Unfortunately, most senseis have to eat too...
Rather then hoping for the greatest of senseis to teach you, i hope to become a great student. But since i have a life outside of aikido, i guess i'll just settle for being a plain student.
