A martial Artist needs more than polished technique to become complete he needs a Heart and to me the Heart and spirit of AIKIDO stems from the Sword.. Henceforth IAIDO. Though not martial at first glance it is the potion that can Combine TECHNIQUE and SPIRIT to Complete a Martial ARTIST

Though AIKIDO & IAIDO oriented do not hesitate to post or discuss other Martial Arts and related subjects or interests..

Sail through the tempest suffer its wrath with dignity, pride and decency.. then emerge enlightened

You are all Welcome.
