Welcome to Gaia! ::

Xie Xie Si Dui!
Aikido is a great art. I would suggest sitting in on a couple of classes at each of the dojos. Things to watch out for:
1.) Empasis on breaks as opposed to throws or locks (True aikido is about returning the bad chi to the user, not about seriously hurting him.)
2.) Humbleness. My sensei was the most humble and pious man I have ever met in my life. I feel that this is very important in an aikido practictioner.

Have a look at these website for more info:

cool, it sounds like fun !! 4laugh

HAH!
The knee to the head style is pointless against the allmighty grab the gonads style!

FAH! CHI BLASTS! Behold my Shield of Voidance!
NOW! I shall unexist your chi blasts and gonads from the time and space continuum!!!!

I counterattack with a mirror making your sword nullify itself and grab your nads!

But you're holding your sword! O.O
If the mirror doesn't work, you nullify yourself for holding the sword!

And oh... Is that lamb's?

Good for you! smile

I hope you're joking neutral
