はじめて全日本少年少女合気道錬成大会を見に行ってきた。招待状を頂いたので行ったが、正面の席に案内されたので面食らった。しかし少年少女達は自分の演武に集中していて、正面席を見ることもなく、眼を合わせることもなく、心配していた緊張もなかった。当大会には約１５０の団体と１５００名が参加し大盛況であった。沢山の元気をもらった。明日からもっと稽古を頑張らなければならないと思った。一人でも多くがこの後も引き続き合気道を続けてくれるように願って会場を後にした。
All Japan Boys and Girls Aikido Training Tournament
I went to see the All Japan Boys and Girls Aikido Training Tournament for the first time.
I went because I received an invitation, but I was taken aback because I was guided to the front seat. But the boys and girls were so focused on their performance that they didn't look at the front seats, didn't make eye contact, and didn't have the nervousness I was worried about. About 150 organizations and 1,500 people participated in this tournament, and it was a great success. I got a lot of energy. I thought I had to practice harder from tomorrow. I left the venue hoping that as many people as possible would continue to practice Aikido.
