I chanced upon a copy of a 1969 book to which Sensei Williams has contributed a chapter on Aikido. I thought that this quote could be encouraging for those making up their mind to come to a class.
It is not so much the practice that is the difficult part but the getting down to the club. For instance, the pupil may return from work on a cold evening, have his dinner and afterwards sit by the fire.
Sensei Williams
It is one of the hardest things to get oneself out of the chair and to get down to the club for training. This is where the mind must be strong and control the body. This dedication is a part of the training and discipline which must go with Aikido.
We know that getting out of a chair is hard and you are not alone in this. Hope this is encouraging. It’s up to you now…
