Aikido of Shreveport-Bossier

Disabled?
Aikido is my physical therapy for disability. While not EASY at all...aikido was the answer.. even more than taichi... as my ability to fall off my bike has been used many times.
When i could no longer stress my tendon bone connection that BJJ destroys in my body or kickboxing recovery takes days now. It keeps me walking and the last 6 times an altercation began...it ended quickly with me in safety... not really hurting the people that got physical with me. ( covid was a doozy) .
Class beginning at 10am Saturday today. 945 arrival and set up. Hope to see you there.

“If, during your movement, you lose your pure heart, you will lose sight of your opponent’s movement and the flow of his power. This will result in your clashing with him or mistiming your movement which will end up destroying the effectiveness of the technique. If you are more powerful than your opponent you may manage to pin him. However, you will have defeated him with force and not with aikido. Only when there is peace in your actions will you be able to see well your opponent’s movements and the flow of his power.

In this manner you and your opponent unite to create a single flow. Thus, when some people who don’t know aikido see a demonstration given by experienced practitioners they become suspicious of the art and believe that everything is prearranged. However, if they start aikido they will later come to realize that their impression of the art was incorrect.”
