Impression of the Children's Aikido Training Meet；
I think that this is my last children’s
training meet during my junior high school days because I am in the
9th grade.
I am happy because I was able to devote myself wholeheartedly to the meet. -
Ayano FUKUI (grade 9)
I did my best because it was my last demonstration in the
children’s meet. - Rei SUZUKI (grade 9)
This was my first demonstration but I enjoyed it so much. The last sensei
(=Waka-sensei) was amazing. - Koki MORI (grade 1)
