when I first started Aikido here in Oxford, I sent off to Australia for Joe Thambu's SHUDOKAN AIKIDO:Foundations DVD. This covers the basics from 10th Kyu (white belt) through to 4th Kyu (orange belt). It was daunting to see all the techniques, laid out like that on the DVD, it looked like "FAR TOO MUCH STUFF TO LEARN".
Well, got my 4th Kyu (orange belt) tonight, only slightly delayed by my TWO YEARS OFF, but it was great fun to have learned all the basic techniques on that DVD. Thanks to Shudokan Aikido Oxford for putting up with me for all these years and correcting my efforts to the point where it's 'recogniseable' as Aikido.
Yay!
