In this episode, Nick speaks with Michael Veltri, the owner and chief instructor of DC Aikido, about the history, philosophy and benefits of Aikido.
If you live in the Washington, DC area and are interested in learning more about Aikido, I highly recommend you take a look at Veltri-sensei’s dojo. In addition to their webpage, you can check them out on Facebook and Twitter.
Veltri-sensei recommends that all his students read The Spirit of Aikido, by Kisshomaru Ueshiba. I also found The Aikido Student Handbook, by Greg O’Connor to be a very helpful resource. Additionally, this video series demonstrates how many of Aikido’s movements are executed.
