To care for others is the real martial art. To not care shows a disregard for yourself and the universe.

Aikido is a means of self-correction of Intention through reflection.

Why is there so much energy given to the art of war? The art of peace requires so little!

Love never destroys; hate in itself bears the scars of countless battles.

Respect should always be offered to the opponent first. Often this can lead an attitude of dis-harmony into a peaceful resolution.

To hate is to know love. Strive to love over hate, if we are all to survive.

To have no compassion in your martial art, shows a cover up of our most natural instinct; “fear”.

The ultimate goal of Aikido attained is seeing yourself and the world through eyes that are non-confrontational.
