Hi Guys,

Hopefully we can run this class, any idea about what you'd like to go
over? We've got 3 hours so chuck some ideas this way please!

For me personally, I think we need to look at ukeing, when it's
appropriate to resist and when not to, and how much momentum is
appropriate...

John.

The class is open to anyone and everyone :). You'd be more than welcome.

Hi John
I will speak to my students and find out who fanceys a trip.I wil not be at the Milton Keynes course as I have a Sunday morning class to teach in Stockport.I have read your profile on your website.I holiday in Florida every year and always spend a lot of time at the Shoshin Dojo under Daniel Linden Sensei 6th Dan ASU, Aikikai. He oftens tells stories of Saotome Sensei and Ikeda Sensei hope we can get together sometime in the future.

Hi Sam,

Well, you'd all be welcome. I'll try and organise a car full or two to
come up to you guys one Sunday. I've not trained with you guys since
Mimuro sensei (sadly didn't make the course in January). I've probably
trained with Linden sensei at some stage or other, he looks quite
familiar so I've probably seen him on one of the Summer Camp in the
Rockies courses.

I think Ikeda sensei (no surprise here to anyone who knows me) is
currently on the cutting edge of Aikido and he's definitely the real
deal and out of all the people I've had the pleasure of taking ukemi
for is the only person who has 'aiki', 'internal structure' or
'internal power' call it what you will. It's something different that
until you grab someone with it, you can't grasp, you can't get you
head around and you can't quite imagine.

__________
Regards,
John.
