I had to use one of our dojo's worst jo tonight: I think it is varnished. Terrible, terrible feeling on the hands. I don't know why anyone would varnish a jo. It couldn't slide at all. Brrr

This starts today! Come try #Aikido at #TurkuAikikai!
(The intro course is only for beginners, so I won't be there in person, but I go to other sessions regularly.)

Voilà, on a fait la démo d'aïkido, la maire est venue nous voir (qui nous a dit de continuer ce qu'on fait parce que c'est bon pour la sécurité sociale), c'était chouette :)
J'ai aidé à tenir le stand : pas beaucoup de passage malheureusement (comme tous les ans), mais peut-être au moins une ou deux personnes qui reviendront pour un cours d'essai ? -

For the past four years I have been trying to come up with a way to train in the various martial arts I am familiar with (principally American #Kenpo and #Kyusho Jitsu). While shadow training works up to a point, there is no substitute for a physical training partner — for too many reasons to get into here.
My problem is that I moved away from my training cohorts 18 months ago to what seems to be a martial arts desert. I know of only two schools within reach one is in #Aikido, the other is a #KungFu school I’ve never heard of.
Given I’m 76 yo, even if a relatively fit one, what would either school do if I told them I was looking for a training partner? I know what i woud do if it was my school but then I’m not your average martial artist, and I’ve expereinced some instructors who would not take kindly to such requests.
I’m exploring some solutions, but none that would provide me with a uke.
I’m not expecting anyone to come up with a solution for me, I’m just journaling my pain.

My number one hobby is #ttrpgs -- mostly the #worldbuilding aspect of them, DMing, very rarely playing. Been doing it for uhh 35 years now. The worldbuilding's been constant, the actual play much more intermittent. My current game's about eight sessions in with a bunch of nuggets, running #dnd 5.5. It's going pretty well.
Roughly equivalent to this is #meditation, #spirituality, and the #occult. I read a lot, I reflect a lot, sometimes I even do stuff, generally fairly ad hoc. I've been a #druid, a #christian, #asatru, various combinations of all three, now kinda doing my own thing.
Third is #cooking, though I don't do as much of that as I used to. I used to love meat and got very good at variously preparing it, then the wife went vegan and I discovered meat seems to tamper with my mojo so I don't eat much of it anymore and most of my cooking jutsu is moot.
Fourth is #reading in general, I suppose -- #speculativeFiction, generally, sometimes #romance, sometimes the happy union of the two. I'm not well-read, by any means, but I like it more than any other medium, when I have the brain for it. #Comics, too, especially #webcomics. Love 'em.
Fifth is #martialArts. I've studied, at various times, #karate, #taijutsu, #aikido, #savate, and #hema, though none to any great extent and none all that recently. I like to spar, and someday I'd like to pick up #judo.
Sixth is uhh well I want to pick up #crochet this year, maybe.
Also I sing sometimes.
Anyone wants to chat about any of the above, hit me up.

The result of that was a 15-20min post-class informal congregation of a few other newbies, with questions, and a quick no #ukemi demo of forms of #KoteGaeshi that are NOT usually taught, outside of #DaitoRyu and other #Jujutsu forms.
What attracted me to #Aikido was the inclusiveness, the flexibility and optional benevolence of the forms.
Many assume that, because of that optional benevolence, Aikido "doesn't work" because you don't leave a trail of bloody bodies behind you. The Aikido forms are direct from DaitoRyu. We train in a manner to not apply lethality or even likelihood of physical harm (apply #ukemi qualifiers here).
But never make categorical assertions, out of near absolute ignorance, about the effectiveness of a encompassing series of techniques you barely started to discover.Looks foolish.
Namely when someone proceeds to demonstrate a dozen or so forms of that technique you didn't know existed, and which show exactly what you said couldn't happen.

The other day, at the dojo, someone told me, *categorically* that there is NO WAY to execute a #KoteGaeshi without significant #TaiSabaki (full body displacement).
The individual in question is, now, a NiKyu (2nd degree before yudansha/black belt) with about ~5yrs of Aikido (and an alleged "black belt" in TKD, which is worth what it is) training.
The guy is the type to resist techniques and insert his previous exclusive training into the form. His tea cup is so full.
I smirked, stated he might not be right about that, and ignored his further mumbling.
