What's the Angle?

Hello fine people! What a beautiful day it is! Today I would like to talk about “the angle of attack”. In any of the practices in Aikido we want to be aware of how we are approaching the nage so that the practice we are doing will make sense. Awareness of the position of yourself, and your partner is paramount. You can practice the angle and positioning with stuff outside the Dojo too, for example going to the supermarket and walking through the crowd without ever bumping into another person’s energy. WOW! I can’t wait to go shopping!

This week at the Dojo:

*Monday, Today: It is TRAIN AT YOUR LEVEL DAY in all of the classes.

*Monday, Today: Parent’s meeting at 5pm, e are going to discuss THE ORAGAMI PROJECT; a practice in caring.

*Monday, Today: Teen’s Deshi Meeting at 4:30pm (our first training!)

*Monday, Today: Adult’s Deshi meeting at 6pm, creating and maintaining the culture.

*Monday, Today: Black Belt seminar at 12noon, and 7pm (regular class is still going on at that time!)


*Tuesday: Youth Deshi meeting at 4:30pm (our first meeting and training!)

*Saturday: Sempai Training after regular class 10:40am. Good stuff on the way!!

Look for the Origami project flyer at the Dojo! A way to send out positive energy into the community! And build hand dexterity skills.


Look for info coming about our internal seminar on June 4th and 5th. Great teaching, and Black Belt tests!


Let’s have a magnificent week!! Vince Sensei
