Aikido Stories Podcast Episode 2 is ready! In episode 2, Michael Friedl Sensei tells of his first experience with aikido. At the time, in 1972, Michael Sensei was a 2nd degree black belt in karate and had his own dojo. One of his students was also taking aikido and invited Michael Sensei to check it out. Michael Sensei was, to say the least, skeptical.

Aikido Stories Podcast Episode 1

[podlove-web-player]

I have been wanting to do an aikido stories podcast for a long time. Now, it’s time. The podcast will be simple — just aikido stories. We’ll have all sorts of aikido stories, self-defense, training, unraveling bad situations. And the stories will be from all sorts of folks, not just senior instructors — though we’ll have those. 🙂

In this first episode, I share with you an incident that happened in the 1970s when I was a trumpet player in the college marching band. Some guy, flanked by his friends, thought it would be a good idea to pick on me. Aikido excitement ensues. Don’t worry, no bullies were harmed in the creation of this story.
