Aikido Grading

Grading just ended about 4 hours ago . Despite being ill , i still went for my grading . I got tired very fast . Good thing that my partner told me what to do as i made some mistakes halfway . I got thrown around a lot !

After this grading , i realized something . I really need to start working out and exercising . I thought that aikido didnt require working out . I was wrong !

I think that i should be able to pass my grading and be promoted to 5th Kyu .

Here are some pictures , taken by my mom and sister .
