Good morning fine people! The practice focus this week is on:
THE FOUNDER CHOSE A DIFFERENT PATH
There are many paths you can take.
The Founder of Aikido in his generation took a path to resolve conflicts in the most humane way.
It is good to have a path.
Sometimes you will struggle, you will sweat, you will fail.
And it is good to have a path.
When you know your path, it’s easier not to get lost!

***Monday, Today: Happy Labor Day! The Dojo is off for improvements. Please shadow train!
