Do not view martial arts as mere self-defence! You could miss out on so much more they offer.

Martial arts are not studied to enhance aggression, but to train the spirit to reveal flaws for ones own self correction.
The study of one’s posture within Aikido is as much spiritual as it is physical.
Aikido is a means of self-correction of Intention through reflection.
The enlightened martial artist sees no enemy but the one within.
A martial artist should always train the mind as well as the body, but not always moving in synchronization.
The true martial artist has a caring spirit that sees all as one.
Have patience while walking the path of Aikido there really is no final destination. Study sincerely in the moment for today is what matters. Tomorrow will come all too soon. Reflect in the journey this is the ultimate goal.
It’s less important how strong others see you. And far more important in the strength you see in yourself.
Treat others in the way you would like to be treated and a harmony shall exist.
