Just practice what your instructor(s) show you and avoid the temptation to chatter with the other students during class, like I did as a beginner. :-) You can socialize afterwards. Less talking equals more learning! Good stuff, Lyle.

I'll do that. Right now all I want to do is get that Yellow belt. I feel like a right softy in the white one. Thanks for the tip. I’ll do that.

Just be aware that the 17 techniques I show and the way we do them is from Shodokan style Aikido (a.k.a. Tomiki style Aikido). If you are starting a traditional style, such as Aikikai, then talk to your instructor first. I don't wish to confuse you (or anyone else). Aikido is a long and challenging journey, with many rewards. Hi Lyle,
