Aikido 2000
The above picture was taken at the
graduation ceremony for Kenshu, a series of intensive training clinics
that took nearly 3 years. We studied history, black belt techniques, traditional
fighting techniques and teaching methods among others.
This is a picture of me taken with
Kushida Sensei, the head instructor of Yoshokai Aikido at a fund raiser
last summer. At right is a photo from the 2000 Spring demo in Ann Arbor.
(I am the upside-down guy.) For more information on Yoshokai Aikido, a
Web site is being developed at http://www.aikido-yoshokai.org.
Other good Web sites on traditional Japanese Martial Arts can be found
