Fortnight's Quote:

A man is truly ethical only when he obeys the compulsion to help all life which he is able to assist, and shrinks from injuring anything that lives. ~~ Albert Schweitzer

Recurring Events at Rocky Mountain Ki Society:

SOKU SHIN NO GYO, aka Bell Misogi, usually on the 1st Saturday of each month at 7:00am in the Westminster Dojo: Sokushin No Gyo is an intense breath training that involves ringing a bell along with vigorous kiai. This practice helps you to develop plus ki and learn more about breathing. Lead by an instructor, you'll train to coordinate mind and body by chanting while swinging a bell, and harmonizing with a group of ki-aikidoka. This is one of the most powerful ways to do ki training, an experience not to be missed; you have to feel it to know what it is like. -- If you want to attend Sokushin No Gyo, but have never come before, you'd need to ask your instructor about the basics first. Please contact Derek Nabel Sensei for date and time confirmation!
