We recently finished a seminar with Bill Gleason Sensei of Shobu Aikido in Boston, Massachusetts. Sensei worked the entire weekend on the principle of entering and rotating the spine with proper posture. The key to the movement is to bend your knees and allow the energy to move down your spine. We worked from a variety of attacks each time working to keep our hips facing our partner and rotating the spine without twisting the hips away from our attacker. It was a mind teaser at first but became easier as the weekend progressed. Each movement was based on entering directly into uke’s power and twisting the spine. |

On Sunday Jesse Spears rolled 60 times to celebrate his birthday. Even with the dojo being quite warm due to the recond heat in Texas, Jesse did very well rolling for the many energetic aikidoka who helped with the special birthday rolls. Great Job Jesse and Happy Birthday! |

Click here for the Seminar flyer Click here for the registration form Please note that we share the parking lot wih several businesses in our building. Typically this is not an issue since our class schedule is after they close (evenings and Sundays). These business do operate on Saturday morning so our members and guests will need to park in the Broken Spoke's parking lot (next door to our dojo) for the Saturday morning portion of the seminar. |
