Great class at Wexford on Monday. Nice to have some Dan Grade support. Especially with my son Kevin dusting off his hakama.
Some really good work lads.

Newcastle Aikido ~ etiquette and terminology series.

Aiki (合気) is often translated as “harmonising energy” or “blending with.” But its meaning goes much deeper.

It is the principle of meeting force without unnecessary resistance. Rather than colliding with an attack, we learn to blend with it, redirect it and resolve conflict with control rather than aggression.

Aiki doesn’t begin with your technique.

It begins with your state of mind.

When we remain calm, centred and connected, our movement becomes more natural, more efficient and more effective.

In Aikido, true strength isn’t found in overpowering another person. It’s found in staying balanced enough to guide the situation without being consumed by it.

This series explores the Japanese words you’ll hear around the dojo. They’re more than terminology—they’re principles that shape the way we train and, over time, the way we live.

Newcastle Aikido - Terminology and etiquette series.
SENPAI | 先輩

A Senpai isn’t the person who stands at the front.

A Senpai is the person who remembers what it felt like to stand at the beginning.

In Japanese martial arts, Senpai simply means “one who has gone before.” It isn’t a title of authority. It’s a relationship built on experience, responsibility and service.

A good Senpai welcomes new students.

They answer questions with patience.

They lead by example.

They quietly help preserve the culture of the dojo, passing on not only techniques, but the values that give those techniques meaning.

Every Senpai was once the newest person on the mat.

And every beginner deserves someone willing to walk beside them.

That’s how a dojo grows.

One student at a time.
