50 AIKIDO EXPERTS
GIVE YOU THEIR #1 PRACTICE TIP
FOR KEEPING YOUR AIKIDO
MILES KESSLER
Hello All,
For 10-days in May, 2017, I hosted the first of its kind Aikido tele-summit called
“Aikido At The Leading Edge.” In this online, global event, I gathered together with
46 of the worlds top Aikido teachers, thought leaders, and entrepreneurs for live
interviews, workshops, and panel discussions relevant to the art of Aikido.
Over 2,300 people tuned-in as the teachers generously offered their wisdom,
perspectives, and vision of Aikido At The Leading Edge.
At the end of each tele-summit session I asked a single question to all the
teachers, namely; “What is your #1 tip, or practice advice for someone to keep
their Aikido at the leading edge?” The answers were remarkably insightful.
I have gathered these answers here in this eBook, and have organized into the
following 7 sections:
It is my wish that the gems of wisdom collected in this eBook serve you as
guidance, inspiration, and further development along your path of practice. May
we all continue to co-create “Aikido At The Leading Edge!”
With Love,
Miles Kessler

ON COMMITMENT TO PRACTICE
“Each day when off the mat, train your tanden: Relax,
then focus attention in your tanden for 30 seconds,
toning the muscles around it and remembering that
you intend to embody both love and power in your
life.“
