Well, if you are worried about him, then follow your heart when it comes to figuring out what to do. If you can only muster a coach-type relationship, then keep things at a mundane level and deal with the practical issues involved (e.g. ask him if he is currently not able to continue your privates and/or if there is a reason why he may not want to, etc.). If you can muster up enough faith to have a sensei (as one is understood in my own reasoning), and if this behavior of his is something that goes contrary to that faith, then move on to find another sensei that can carry the spiritual/moral burden of your commitment to training in the Way.

Maybe that is the practical advice one can pull out of what I tried to say above (but perhaps said poorly).

sorry,
d
very good advice.

Re: Frustrated With Sensei's Behavior

Your experience reminds me of henka waza. You keep moving and turning and passing thru different potential techniques until you finally find the one that allows the throw to be completed. As long as you have decided to find that final moment then it will come. Some Aikido lessons, as you know, are not about joint manipulations. Good luck.
