Tonight we had a bonus Aikido training, focused on intense Kokyo Nage (for the nerds to know …). So. Fun! Then we hanged out at the Dojo for some extended socializing, before hitting town and ending up on the premier finer beer spot downtown (no brands mentioned …).

Great to share time in something else than your Keiko Gi (nerdiness… AGAIN – your training gear …), off the mat, some time! So much to share, so much to love – and that is spelled Aikido, Life and Universe! O’Sensei, the founder, would say – “well, that’s the same”, meguess …

Thanks for being there, my “second family”. You’re the best!
