Randori[edit]

After reading this very good description I would like to add that in ASU (Aikido Schools of Ueshiba) Randori is actively encouraged from day one ,this may vary slightly from dojo to dojo, but generally in ASU students are never excluded from any activity, in the dojo I attended Randori is encouraged participation from day one. And from my own experiences of ASU nothing is ever limited to advanced students. Randori is a very valuable lesson for everyone because it encourages balance, agility, perception and many other high quality attributes. I feel any Aikido student regardless of their experience shoudl actively participate in Randori, simply because its a group or team excercise and encourages fun as well as learning. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.136.186.16 (talk) 23:28, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merging sections "In Japan" and "Tenshin Aikido", renaming to "In Aikido"[edit]

I'm planning to merge these sections. The term is "used in Japanese martial arts" and its meaning "depends on the martial art" so it doesn't make sense to title a section "In Japan" when the content of that section refers to usage in Japan in one organization in one art. Also, it's not noteworthy to note small differences in randori practice in one small subsidiary of an organization when variations that large and larger can occur from dojo to dojo in the same organization.
