Happy birthday Roz Warren!

When I turned 65, or to be more exact, was a month and a half shy of 65, I started martial arts training. Aikido to be specific. Aikido is not about violence and domination but rather self control, using your own body to advantage, and situational awareness including awareness of your body in space. It also has a strong spiritual center.

I’ll be 70 in May and I’m still at it. I don’t know if I could have started it now but I’m continuing it. I expressed that thought to Sensei at class last night. He is 72. He has spent his whole life at it.

I won’t say one is never too old to begin martial arts training I think I can say that you are not too old now.
