Summer / Fall 2017 Newsletter / Aikido Institute Davis Awase Awase is the newsletter of the Ki no Nagare Keiko Aikido Institute of Davis, a dojo where you can learn the arts of Aikido and Tai Chi. By Hoa Newens Sensei The Awase newsletter is published twice yearly in Winter and Summer. Ki no Nagare (気の流れ) Keiko simply means Flowing Ki Training and is one of three ways of Please visit our website at executing techniques during Aikido training. In AikidoDavis.com for information on earlier writings, I have explained the related membership & class times. concepts of Kihon Waza (Basic Techniques) and Yawarakai Waza (Soft Techniques). I have waited until our dojo is more mature and the Sempai group has grown sufficiently to grasp the next level of training, before I lay out the more advanced concept of Ki no Nagare. Now the Sempai group is strong and the time is ripe, so here it is. First, let me point out the change in nomenclature. I refer to Ki no Nagare Keiko (training) rather than Waza (technique) for a reason. In Ki no Nagare (hereafter KNN), technique is no longer the focal point, rather the way the training partners carry themselves while interacting becomes more relevant, that is, KNN is a way of training; therefore, we refer to it as KNN Keiko. It is helpful to remind the reader of the effective order of training in the traditional approach: first, Kihon for many years, then gradually incorporate Yawarakai for several years, culminating naturally with Ki no Nagare. The more solid the Kihon foundation, the easier it is for Yawarakai to lead naturally to Ki no Nagare.

Survey of Aikido Practitioners' Workpl
AIKIDO AS A SOMATO-SPIRITUAL BASED PRAXIS FOR CONSTRUCTIVE HANDLING OF SOCIAL CONFLICT: SURVEY OF AIKIDO PRACTITIONERS’ WORKPLACE CONFLICT STYLES by Christopher Jason Schalge A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Clinical Psychology Sofia University Palo Alto, California May 7, 2014 I certify that I have read and approved the content and presentation of this dissertation: ________________________________________________ __________________ David Lukoff, Ph.D., Committee Chairperson Date ________________________________________________ __________________ Paul Linden, Ph.D., Committee Member Date ________________________________________________ __________________ Doug Oman, Ph.D., Committee Member Date Copyright © Christopher Jason Schalge 2014 All Rights Reserved Formatted according to the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 6th Edition ii Abstract Aikido as a Somato-Spiritual Based Praxis for Constructive Handling of Social Conflict: Survey of Aikido Practitioners’ Workplace Conflict Styles by Christopher Jason Schalge The perennial problem of poorly handled conflict in the workplace is detrimental to individuals and organizations. This study investigated whether training in the martial art of aikido is associated with efficacy in the constructive handling of social conflict in the workplace. Aikido practitioners (N = 143) from a diverse sampling of occupations participated in a battery of assessments. Aikido experience was primarily measured by cumulative hours of training. Core aspects of aikido were measured with the Body Insight Scale and the Spirituality in the Workplace Scale. The Rahim Organizational Conflict Inventory II was used to assess workplace conflict styles. Integrating style is regarded as the most efficacious in the constructive handling of conflict followed by compromising. Avoiding style is considered the least efficacious and dominating is next to last (obliging was not considered).

AWA Newsletter
AWA DEC - 2017 | ISSUE 16 AWA | PAGE 01 LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Jeremy M.L. Hix, Nidan Dojo Cho-Greater Lansing Aikido; Lansing, MI USA Reflecting on this year, I am inspired by those closest to me. Their perseverance, mental, physical, and emotional fortitude, go well beyond anything short of super human. There are some battles that cannot be won. As in Aikido, there is no winner or loser, only Masakatsu Agatsu "true victory is victory over oneself." Such is the life of people with chronic pain and fatigue. Conditions such as Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Chronic Fatigue, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Migraines (to name a few from a long list) are "Invisible" in the sense that they may not present outward physical manifestations of the associated symptoms. Furthermore, the individual living with the condition may also feel invisible in the sense of "self" as they are dismissed as faking their ailments. Often, this causes feelings of isolation, depression, anxiety, and withdrawal. I'm fortunate to have two people in my life that are very close to my heart, both battling with invisible health conditions. They are relentless in their perseverance, in their ability to overcome. They practice Aikido on crutches, in wheelchairs, and are eager to learn. They travel to Japan and explore the world. They never give up. They never acquiesce. Through understanding, compassion, empathy, and love, we can help make visible the beautiful person beneath the vale of these chronic conditions. I would like to dedicate this editorial to my better halves: Kristy, and her sister, Kayla. Thank you both for your perseverance in the face of adversity, and for giving me the privilege of being your friend along the way.

Interview with Morihiro Saito Shihan Aikikai 9Th Dan
Interview with Morihiro Saito Shihan Aikikai 9th dan Morihiro Saito Shihan (Aikikai 9th dan) began practice of Aikido in 1946 under Aikido's Founder, Morihei Ueshiba, at the Ibaragi Iwama Dojo. This year marks the 50th anniversary of his dedicated practice of the art of Aikido. He has published many books, including the five in the classic series Traditional Aikido, and he appears on several videos. It seems that at every important junction in my life, Saito Sensei has been there. He was at Iwama during the years I spent as an uchi deshi under the Founder, Morihei Ueshiba. Six years after the Founder's death, Saito Sensei came, at my invitation, to a demonstration for an Aikido club on Misawa Air force base, where I was teaching - a demonstration that led to the opportunity for me to come to the US for the first time. Now, 20 years later, in October 1995, I had the opportunity to invite Saito Sensei to instruct at Aikido Nippon Kan in Denver, Colorado. It seems like only the blink of an eye - the time has gone by so quickly. I remember experiences from the past as if they happened yesterday. I am 45 years old now, and Saito Sensei is 67. As time passes and we grow older, I think our temperament and values change, becoming more tolerant and generally more accepting. During our seminar, as I took care of Saito Sensei and watched him teach, I clearly realized just how much time had passed, and just how many memories I had. As Saito Sensei taught, I never heard him talk about universal powers, God, auras, peace, or ki, and I never heard him make any other cosmic references.

Dojo Expansion and Dojo Spirit
SUMMER/FALL 2009 Newsletter / Aikido Institute Davis Awase The Mystery of Basics is the newsletter of the Awase by Hoa Newens, Sensei Aikido Institute of Davis, a dojo where you can learn the arts of Aikido and Tai Chi. The Awase newsletter is published twice Much has been said about the importance of yearly in spring and fall. basic drills in martial art training. It is a hallmark of the Iwama style of Aikido as taught by the late Saito Morihiro Sensei. Saito Sensei’s Please visit our website at emphasis on training in basic techniques is his AikidoDavis.com for information on main legacy. He devoted a great portion of his teaching time to basics, repeating ad infinitum membership & class times. the key points of the basic form of every technique. Every one of his students would remember the phrase ―drop your elbow, your shoulder and your hips; let your Kimochi (feeling) sink; turn and look in the same direction as your Uke‖ that pertains to Morotedori Kokyuho in every class. It is the same form with the same pointers in every class, be it a regular class or a class in a seminar. Some people would call him an expert technician who cares mostly about how Aikido techniques look and who dwells on the physical aspect of Aikido while ignoring its deeper spiritual underpinnings. It is a correct observation that Saito Sensei emphasized the correctness of the form. But he also has outlined a path that leads from the detailed form through the gradual disappearance of form and ultimately to Takemusu Aiki, the state in which the person acts in spontaneous harmony with the surroundings.

AIKIDO TEACHING and GRADING Iwama Style Is Characterized By
AIKIDO TEACHING AND GRADING The Aikido practiced at the London Aikido Club is Iwama style. This is the style of Aikido taught by the founder, O’Sensei in his home dojo in Iwama from approximately 1945 for fifteen years. It is the true original Aikido of the founder in its last evolution and it is very different from other styles of what is generally called ‘aikido’ although there are superficial resemblances. The late Morihiro Saito sensei made it his mission to promote this Aikido and asked those who studied with him to help him preserve O sensei’s original techniques. This we try to do. In association with like-minded members of an international group called Takemusu Aiki Kyokai, we are custodians of a precious jewel, the marvellous Aikido of O sensei passed on by Saito sensei. We do not deviate from this path, although we cannot claim to know it perfectly, and our understanding is developmental. Iwama style is characterized by 1. the unification of jo, ken and taijutsu in an interdependent system. “When you practice tai jutsu, think buki waza, when you practice buki waza, think tai jutsu” 2. Basics . Strong, solid basics are the ongoing keynote. Moving Aikido (ki no nagare) is not practiced until the basics are sound, and those basics must always be practiced. Just like a musician, however accomplished, will continue to practice his scales. “When we are lost we should return to the base” 3. ”O sensei’s techniques are very detailed and very rational” “It’s all in the hips and angles” 4.

Seminar Nuggets What Are You Not Saying?
Winter 2014 AWASE January 1st Awase is the newsletter of the Aikido Institute of Davis, a dojo where you can learn the arts of Aikido and Tai Chi. Please visit our website at www.AikidoDavis.com for information on Seminar Nuggets membership & class times. Hoa Newens Sensei During this year (2013) I had the opportunity to teach Aikido at several seminars at various locations, regionally and internationally. At these seminars, due to time constraint I had to distill the teaching into key points that are simple but pregnant with meaning so that people can remember and use them. These points are expressed in simple and direct language. In this edition of Awase I share a few of these key points with the hope that some of them resonate with you and are useful in your training. Movement and Stillness To become good at randori, practice blending, To blend well, practice techniques, To master techniques, practice tai sabaki, To excel at tai sabaki, practice stances, To get strong stances, practice stillness. What Are You Not Saying? Clelia Clark I never know what to expect when I walk into a medical school interview. Almost without exception, however, all of my interviewers have taken some degree of interest in Aikido. Some have never heard of it and are looking for an explanation. Others are more surprised. “Did I see you won some sort of gentleman’s award?” asked one of my interviewers. “Well I do martial arts…I suppose that’s kind of masculine,” I replied. “Yes! Martial arts! That’s it. Tell me more.” 1 Winter 2014 AWASE January 1st An important question most of the schools have is, of Aikido gives us a mechanism to listen to both mind course, how will your experiences in Aikido make you and body of those around us.
