Hello, and welcome to Taido/Blog. Though it isn’t a true blog, this site is about Taido. For those who aren’t familiar with Taido, I have prepared an explanatory essay, but please also look at the links provided here. Keeping tabs on these existing Taido resources will put the ideas I present in perspective.
This is a website about ideas. I have done Taido for most of my life, and I love it, so I think about it often. In order to organize these thoughts, I write my ideas down, and about 5% of those ideas become articles on Taido/Blog.
I don’t imagine that I’m the only person who thinks about Taido. I’m just one of the only people writing a website about it in English. One reason I chose to make this site public was to encourage people to think more and express their ideas more freely. Without this exchange, Taido will stagnate, and I don’t want that to happen.
Development happens naturally when we share information with each other. Whether our experiences are shared in the dojo, at tournaments, or on the ‘net, this exchange is what keeps us all moving forward together.
I’m just some guy doing the best he can to keep the creativity flowing in Taido. I believe that Taido’s evolution suffers from the Japanese monopoly on understanding and interpreting Taido theory. In my writing, I hope to disseminate some of this theory to a larger audience, along with my own interpretation of how we can continue to create the best Taido possible.
Most of all, I hope you can find something on this site to stimulate your own thought and creativity.
