Shomenuchi Ikkyo: Straight down

Age doesn't define me. I love having fun and excitement of Aikido movements. Life is too short to waste! This is my story of Aikido life. I'm going to record my journey as a blackbelt! Please enjoy my failed attempts and occasional achievements! Aikido is a way of living both on and off the mat. I also add mental health aspects into my daily practice. When you take care of your mental health, it helps your Aikido practice. At the same time, when you practice Aikido, it helps mental health outside Aikido. It's like Yin and Yang. #aikido #japanese #martialarts #ukemi #aikidolife #japanesemartialarts #budo #selfdefensetraining
