Grading essay 2kyu Pedro
I started practicing aikido when I was about seven years old. I have
started to practice because my mother and my stepfather thought it was a
good idea for me to practice a martial art. At that time, I thought
aikido was simply for me to learn to protect myself, but after two or
three years of me being practicing I started to see aikido in an also
different way. This is the fact that I realized aikido made me feel much
more relaxed. It also helped throughout all these years to develop
strategies to concentrate, which before was not possible. I really enjoy
the whole process of attending to the lessons and the seminars and
learning new techniques and different ways of executing them.
