There are two interesting things to see in Aikido: why do you start and push to continue. The reasons for the second question are generally known as evolving a tutti noi è la scelta dell'inizio della pratica. Ciò che abbiamo voluto stimolare tra i praticanti del Kashin è il ricordo della "scintilla" iniziale, il motivo che ha portato a togliersi le scarpe e salire sul tatami. Proponiamo, a seguire, degli estratti di alcuni interventi .
Il motivo per cui ho iniziato a praticare Aikido è la voglia che ho di maturare nel carattere, crescere e aprirmi di più agli altri e anche verso me stesso….
All’inizio pensavo di praticare il Kendo, essendo un ammiratore dell’arte della sword. But when I heard about aikido and I was informed a little 'about what it was, I was deeply impressed by his philosophy and the ethical and moral component of its teachings, which I hope to learn even more. Also I had the opportunity to learn how to use the sword, so I could not wish for better!
The first day of class I was very tense. As the lesson progressed, however, one thing I was pleasantly surprised: the feeling of seriousness and concentration mixed with a great peace that was felt on the mat ....

Why
ho cominciato a praticare Aikido ? Bella domanda.
Lo devo ai ragazzi con cui lavoro quasi ogni giorno. La loro fisicità, il loro bisogno di contatto, o forse il mio bisogno di contatto. Ad un certo punto durante il mio lavoro con gli adolescenti mi sono reso conto dell’importanza di una presenza anche fisica. Però non stavo cercando un’arte marziale violenta. Ma un qualcosa di più elevato che mirasse alla costruzione della persona piuttosto che alla distruzione…..E così mi presento alla lezione….
Mi piacevano i movimenti, sembravano pure semplici ! Poi ho sentito parlare Roberto Sensei, c’era una sinergia tra quello che faceva e quello che diceva, c’era una sinergia between what I was doing in my daily life and what he said Roberto.
Then I started to practice, understand the concept of flexibility, attentiveness, the stiffness was very complicated. I was not convinced, "if something hurts you is not close but aprendoti that improves the situation." BOM. At one point I give up. And even outside the tatami I took this idea.
. .. Now I think, and certainly I have to aikido, which if you listen to what the person has to say are not swords (in the words of Morihei), but a healthy presence.

I come from past experiences for anything martial concluded. Just come from kali, ten-year study of the knife. I have always tried to develop two things, speed and aggression, to make it very short I look like a snake in my physicality. Jumping, rolling, have been shut my bread for years ... .. One day one of my teachers extremely sensitive to multidisciplinarity me bluntly said "you go to this man (our sensei) who can teach you something" ...
still do not know what to take aikido in my life, I know what he's done in less a year. First opened my head up a need for concentration which led from the muscles I never had, too difficult to grasp, too nice to be grasping. And then, the ability to group, to understand how does one become an adult in spirit, all condensed into gestures, everything aims to supplement the soul without destroying it ...

premise that the idea of \u200b\u200ba combat pure, without anger or rancor between two individuals with bare hands is a concept that has always fascinated me. It allows you undoubtedly know what your limits, both physically and mentally because it gives you the opportunity to see how well you'd be willing to push you, thing at all obvious.
So far as the various types of sports that I practiced swimming, volleyball, basketball, I was not satisfied enough and a year spent in the gym to heal the body found it very boring and not very satisfying because I said no ?!
.. The choice fell on Aikido for several reasons. First is a discipline. Second is the "way of harmony (and who does not have a little 'needs) and energy." Third is a defensive discipline (even though it may hurt to your opponent, the aim is to neutralize it).
The next step was the choice to come and see for yourself that everything I read mi colpisse davvero.
Beh quando sono entrato nella palestra ed ho visto la serietà ed allo stesso tempo la naturalezza e la tranquillità negli occhi di tutti voi praticanti ho capito che quel qualcosina in più che cercavo forse l’avevo davvero trovato…

La prima volta è stata un silenziosa e pazzesca scoperta…che ancora continua…
Il maestro non parlava molto con le parole, mostrava e faceva molto con il corpo…
Ero l’unico nuovo…non capivo nulla…era difficile…ricordo sudore, fatica a comprendere , ascoltare "My body, stiffness ...
wanted to leave after a few months. ... But there was still much to discover and I continued ..." studying and practicing aikido ...
Do you find yourself in the other and the other in themselves until the difference between themselves and others no longer exist and everything is like the picture now hanging in the dojo ...

worked as a dancer in a group of contact improvvisation (dance research) . Hosokawa Sensei in 1982 for a period he worked with our group by sending the principles of art which we translate into creative suggestions for the dance. In 1985 I met and practiced for one year with Sensei Martucci.
vicissitudes a little negative I allontnarono dall'Aikido until 1994 the year when shot with Sensei Martucci practice, the '94 in a sense I feel like the years of dedication to the discipline. It's been 16 years since then.
I apologize if these lines may seem like a resume, in truth is only one way to emphasize how in these years, the Aikido slowly, subtly and intelligently, he improved as an individual still continues to shape, to suggest, to expand the growth of my being.

Ho iniziato con la consapevolezza di voler abbandonare vizi e schemi ormai consolidati, e per questo inutili o dannosi. Ho praticato karate per diversi anni; è stata un’esperienza molto costruttiva, piena di soddisfazioni, un po’ di dolori e tanto allenamento. ….Poi, per varie circostanze, sono cambiate un po’ di cose; la sicurezza che mi ha accompagnato per lungo tempo è venuta meno (il ki va nutrito con una sana pratica, che non si limita all’esecuzione di forme o schemi prestabiliti).
L’aikido mi aiuta a scoprirmi nell’intimo; capisco perfettamente che quest’arte lavora sull’esclusione, sulla pulizia, senza decori and embellishments. So, to work well, I use what I have, the body and mind, better yet the "bodymind".
When I savor those moments I mentioned earlier I realize that the bodymind is to live fully. It 'wonderful feeling to be open to the outside (the companion, the technique, the expression) to understand its center.
