Hello, I'm new to MT and excited to find a place to talk about what I love. I've been taking aikido for about three years now. I would say that my progress is slow, but steadily moving forward. It has been an experience that has changed me in many ways.
I come from a family that is not physically active and perhaps a bit old fashioned. My struggles were to not only physically adjust (to both the activity level and the physical contact in class) but to convince my family (mostly my mother!) that being female and interested in martial arts doesn't make me less of a lady. My husband ranges from being a bit startled by it all to fully supporting. My kids think it's great and want to take classes when they are older.
I have a great class that I attend. It's a smaller dojo and I'm the only female. Though everyone started off slowly with me at first, now they cheerfully tell new members (who are hesitant about 'hurting' me) to throw me harder because I can take it.
I'm looking forward to meeting everyone else here!

Cupio dissolvi… Through all the screaming and the shouting and the wailing and the waving of the rainbow cloth by those who invoke peace but want appeasement, I hear these terrible words ringing in my ears. These people have had this precious gift, this civilization, and they have got bored with it. They take all the advantages it offers them for granted, and despise the ideals that have powered it. They wish for annihilation, the next new thing, as if it was a wonderful party. Won’t it be great, dancing on the ruins?
