Upgrading in Martial Arts for Ministry

My restart of training in Aikido last December in Club 650 isn’t just another way of reducing belly fat, or just another hobby. It is actually part of personal development so I can continue to train others in our Freestyle Martial Arts ministry called Real Warriors. It is my personal upgrade so I can continue to offer new techniques.

Today, I got my ACP (Aikikai Center of the Philippines) membership card and by God’s grace I hope to continue this until I retire, much like the many black belts in Japan who are very old men but still practicing and training in the art of Aikido which was founded by Morihei Ueshiba.

It was an event organized to help cancer patients and was attended by bloggers and sponsors and from different advertising companies. There were two teams of bloggers, Digital Manila and Blog Ballers. None of the bloggers' teams reached the finals but we all appreciated the time to bond with each other with this fun event.

It can be considered as a sport, eventually, as the Dodge Ball Association of the Philippines are leading in promoting and spreading this physical activity in the Philippines.
