The second day of an exciting weekend at the amazing Dublin Comic Con is over! Today, we continued showcasing our Aikido weapons techniques. In addition to the techniques we demonstrated yesterday, we also showed some weapons-taking techniques, giving our visitors another glimpse into the breadth of our weapons practice. It was especially great to see our old friend Richie, an active BJJ practitioner and a huge fan of aikido in general, and of Takemusu Aikido Society in particular. He travelled all the way from Cork to Dublin Comic Con and was genuinely surprised to find us there! It was great to catch up with him. A huge thank you to our friends from the 501st Ireland Garrison for adding extra atmosphere to our demonstrations with their background music throughout the weekend, and for letting our youngest member temporarily join their ranks! Apparently, this had an unexpected side effect: the Jawas suddenly became very friendly and even asked him for a selfie!  It has been an amaz...

  Our First Dublin Comic Con! ⚔️ Today was our very first time taking part in Dublin Comic Con , and what a day it was! We shared a demonstration area with the fantastic Ludo Sports team, and had a table where we could meet visitors, chat about aikido, and introduce people to what we do. For our demonstrations, we decided to show the different aspects of our weapons practice, starting with Aiki-ken Suburi , followed by Kumitachi and some of its variations. Then we moved on to Aiki-jo , demonstrating the 6 no Jo Kata and 13 no Jo Kata , together with Awase , Kumijo , and Ken Tai Jo . And, of course, Comic Con wouldn't be Comic Con without some unexpected encounters! We met Dave the Raven , a Prussian general, Michael Jackson, and many, many other characters throughout the day. We even found ourselves in a battle against a Jedi! ⚔️😄 It was great fun sharing aikido with such an enthusiastic crowd and being part of the incredible Comic Con atmosphere. A huge thank you to everyone w...
