Aikido and Tango

In just over one month, I will be testing for my aikido black belt. I’ve learned so much in my seven years of training and it feels like I have so much more to learn in preparation for this exam. My Sensei reminded me of this video clip which I had shared with him and his instruction is for me to watch this and to use it as a reminder of flowing with ease and grace. Turn off my intellect and my internal critic and allow my body to express its wisdom and grace. And maybe, as I learn to do this in aikido, it can become a way of living with more ease and grace in all parts of my life.
