Aikido
teaches how to blend, harmonize and be confluent with
potentially conflicting forces, while maintaining your
integrity and vitality. This is practiced and realized
by implementing the functional aspects of the art as well
as its philosophy. In fact, Aikido has been called a philosophy
with a physical expression. My own experience has proven
that an amazing amount of philosophy can be transmitted
to even young children when coupled with this kinetic/visual
expression, further grounding the lesson in practicality.
My approach to Aikido emphasizes teaching
the principles of the art which easily translate into
applications for more effective communication, relationship,
and functioning in daily life. These principles apply
from the personal to the global level.
In addition to my class at Mission College,
