Training in a martial art has no end, just a beginning.

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

Your brain doesn’t always understand what your eyes see. Training is the only option to unlock the many facets to the martial arts.

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

The pursuit of powerful aggression within martial arts are the most often sought. This only creates more distance from one another and will never be the answer. Seek the pathless path in your journey and all will become clear in time.

It takes greater courage to lead by truth than to lead with fear and deception.

To win over an enemy with love is a far greater reward than to conquer the enemy with hate.

To train a life time acquiring skills of self-defence only to seek retribution in the destruction of others becomes a wasted journey; a path of self-destruction.

The enlightened martial artist sees no enemy but the one within.

The true martial artist has a caring spirit that sees all as one.
