This week started out somewhat depressing in the knowledge that our sister Dojo in the eastern suburbs had begun classes again this year, while we were still "dojo-less".
Things look positive at this point, not only has my teacher already located a new Dojo months sooner than expected, but it is located within walking distance of my house! (if you consider 40 minutes walking distance, I certainly do...)
I look forward to the mixture of morning and evening classes, and of course the benefit of having the dojo close to home. In the past we were unable to train Keiko after class due to the club closing times, but hopefully at this new venue we can Keiko to our hearts content!
I hope things continue in this positive direction, after such a long break I need something to reinspire me for my Aikido practice. Already I feel overwhelmed by the prospect of winter Gasshuku, a nearby Dojo's weekend Gasshuku with which we are affiliated, and the upcoming Japan trip in May.
What's that? Sorry, have to go... my Jo is calling me!
