Aikido



I went to my first ever Aikido class yesterday. First martial arts class ever. I loved it. Seriously. My body took to it better than I thought it would. The foot movements remind me of a waltz. The rolls, which frankly terrified me when they were explained to me, are fun. I'm looking forward to improving and getting my body to move in different ways. I went because J went last week and thought that this might be something we could do together. Supervised fighting. I was skeptical but I love the stiffness in my back and arms this morning. Not sore but a good stiff that can be ironed out with slow stretches. I feel cat like. Luxurious. Hope this feeling doesn't end.
