“I have often heard my seniors say that Aikido started with ikkyo and finished with ikkyo.
Ikkyo is a technique that we perform with beginners as much as with advanced practitioners. It is a very interesting exercise because even though everybody can do it, it is in reality very hard to master.”

“When I was much younger, I used to practice with a lot of strength but with age, one becomes weaker. During all these years, I have accumulated experience, knowledge, and my glance extended to new horizons. My vision of Aikido has changed with time. In my mind, there are different levels of practice and therefore, there are different ikkyo.
Ikkyo is a technique that has to evolve with time, hence the expression ‘everything starts with ikkyo, and everything finishes with Ikkyo’.”
