Re: Slouch and falls - please advise

People can successfully do aikido with all sorts of physical limitations. One of my friends made black belt last year despite knees which do not bend past 45 degrees (so that he can't, for example, sit in seiza). He had a lovely test even though some techniques were quite unorthodox.

So don't give up, and seek out teachers who won't give up either.
