O Sensei Rei.
Aikdio means:
Increasing ones capacities and becoming more aware through dynamic training with each other.
In order to do this, we need
to be in harmony with ourselves,
calm in our head, heart and belly.
In Aikido we unify
with the direction of our partner's attack
rather than fighting against it.
If, for example, a punch is coming at me,
I go out of the line of attack
just so it passes me
and when there is no more opposition,
I use it to my advantage.
For me, the beauty of Aikido is that it's equally esthetically pleasing and efficent;
if it is well done it is elegant and nontheless it works.
We are transforming a situation of conflict/confrontation
into a peaceful one.
