Monday class

Daniel Sempai posted an article on the Nairobi Aikikai facebook page about punctuality-students should always plan to arrive at the dojo before the Sensei who should find you ready and waiting.This is a sign of respect.
I would like to add another reason-interesting discussions.We are lucky that Sensei Mateusz is an approachable fellow  and we engaged him for about 15 minutes before the class.The topics ranged from Ki Aikido to the future of Aikido,Steven Seagal,Chiba Sensei,Ueshiba Sensei and a host of Aikido figures,Birankai.I have to say my Aikido mind was well fed by the time class started.

It has been a while since I  went through the basics and the best part was knowing  the moves-the foot,hand and body work  are no longer rocket science.
We had two beginners and the ego was happy to be now in the know.

It was a fun class.
