Welcome to South Austin Aikido

On Saturday, Pamela, Jackie, Todd, Barbara, Tim, Chadwick and I went to San Antonio to visit our friends at Alamo City Aikido.  Jackie, Todd and I jumped into the kids class taught by Joe Rangel.  Jackie was a little hesitant to join in, however, once on the mat she began rolling like a pro. 

The second class was taught by Mike Young, where we worked on randori exercises developed by George Ledyard Sensei.  Mike attended the weapons/randori intensive last January and was kind enough to share what he learned in that seminar.  Thanks for the instruction and new ideas on how to practice randori.  What a fun time. 

Following training we forced ourselves to some Mexican cuisine at a nearby restaurant.  Fortunately for me Todd was driving, because I had some heavy eyelids on the trip home.
