Hajime was happening on the other side...
I missed "hajime" today, since I was assigned to be with a person who came to try aikido for the first time. We were going through very basic movements, then Mike Sensei came to tell us to spare more space for the other group that were working on some technique.
Most of the people who were in the other group just finished beginners course. I don't think they knew what they could expect even when Sensei was explaning what they were supposed to do in Hajime session.
It was really too bad that I could not even take a good glance for whats going on...I was just too busy. Still, I could hear Sensei's voice getting louder as it went on,
"You guys are not fast enough!!, GO GO GO!!!"
It did sound like something fun was going on : )
I think its not so easy to conduct a class with Hajime session. At lease people have to know what to do, I think they learn how well to do with experience.
Many people get lost in tiredness...they cant even keep up with the call of "hajime"...thats understandable but it doesnt happen or hasnt happened to me yet. Even when I am behind the call, I some manage to keep up with the call so I am aware if I am on the call or behind it.
I don't look for it, but when I get to do Hajime, I could say I do it well, or I want to do it well otherwise, I regret it very badly.
