Welcome
Hello! Thank you for dropping by! This website is a collaborative effort made possible by a community of individuals who wish to see the arts they love thrive. Therefore we put together resources, projects, and information, available to anyone, anywhere for free. What we know, you know because we believe that by raising everyone else up, we’ll naturally rise too. While this may seem like it’s Aikido specific, all of the information available can be used for other martial arts as well, and even businesses in general.
Please feel free to poke around, and contact us if you have any questions about anything. We realized that individually, we are small, but together we can create measurable change. Our mission is to see the arts we love grow and prosper, but we can’t do that if our groups remain separated and without exchanging resources. If you find this information useful, or believe you have information we can use, please drop us a comment in the comment boxes, or use the contact information in the About Us page. We’d love to hear from you!
When a minority group pushing change was below 25% of the total group, its efforts failed. But when the committed minority reached 25%, there was an abrupt change in the group dynamic, and very quickly the majority of the population adopted the new norm. In one trial, a single person accounted for the difference between success and failure.
