My columns at the AikiWeb.com aikido website.


AikiWeb.com is an excellent aikido website run by Jun Akiyama. He was kind enough to invite me to be one of its columnists, which I started with in September 2008. I try to write a new column every month, but I don't always find the time to do that. Anyway, here you find my columns, and those of other writers from the aikido world:
