Last Saturday I received my Takemusu Aikido Ikkyu grading. It was tough, but I felt proud of myself afterward. The last 14 months I have been living an active life with lots of cardio training, and this surely supported me during my grading exam. I was required to participate with my fellow student doing the Gokyu, Yonkyu and Sankyu grading syllabus. Then afterward I still had to performed the Ikkyu syllabus... I was pretty knackered!
But apart from one correction, I basically performed every technique from the word go. It felt good to be able to perform such a multitude of techniques with a more natural feeling rather than over thinking it.
Now start my journey to train for Shodan as well as becoming an instructor.
