Framingham Aikikai

Thursday and the advanced scouting team is already putting together the mats. The softer mats are often around the perimeter. Travel here safely, it will be time soon for practice...

Don't forget your toothbrush. When do you pack for a trip? Do you make a list before hand? What do you often pack but never use?

Do you have throwback pictures of your early days in Aikido?

Speaking of Harmony, have you read or watched Technical Aikido? What was a quote that resonated with you?

Excited to see everyone soon. For some of those spicy techniques, how do you find your way into them? Or do you have to plan in advance you are going to attempt them?

How are you getting to the seminar? Are you carpooling? Are you bringing someone new? Will this be someone's first seminar?

One week to go! Don't forget your blanket, towel, pillow and bug spray...

I mean don't 'struggle' but... what do I mean?

If you are giving a demonstration, which attack do you ask your uke to perform? Which would be the least favorite attack you would want them to perform and why?
