“To study Aikido is to study adaptability. Very few events unfold according to plan. What happens to your focus and balance when the wheels fall off? New opportunities crop up at every moment if I am open to them.” - Mark Brodbeck, 4th Dan, Thursday night instructor for kids (6pm) and adults (7pm). Aikiotoshi from gyakutenage.
