AikiWeb Forums Subject Matter

Well, okay I'm flexable. But what conclusions are we to draw about this? Is the official stance of aiki-web that all things related to internal training even if they are specifically going to be used by life long aikido folks specifically to enhance aikido training and eventually teaching do not belong on aikiweb in the general aikido forums? I can live with it, but I don't understand it. -Rob

I don't think there are any hard and fast rules. My own guideline (which might change) is that I prefer to talk about training paradigms and concepts that I have not found in traditional aikido over on internal-aiki.com. Certainly there's a lot of cross-over, but I try to use that distinction.

Ron's actions of re-posting a discussion outside of AikiWeb does not reflect upon "official" from AikiWeb.

If your discussion's subject matter centers upon the art of aikido, it is welcome in the "General" section (or other appropriate section) of the AikiWeb Forums. If your discussion's subject matter centers upon an art other than aikido but is still pertinent to martial arts in general, it would be welcome in the "Non-Aikido Martial Traditions" forum.

Hope that helps,

Sorry if I caused any confusion or hub-bub. Certainly had no wish to offend anyone, or to look like I have any capacity at aikiweb other than being a member in (hopefully) not bad standing.

I just find some of the detailed discussions on the internal side get sidetracked...and I thought it just the sort of thing internal-aiki was created for.

Please accept my appology if what I did was inappropriate.

Best,
Ron
