be sober and well. Wellbriety teaches that we must find
sobriety from addictions to alcohol and other drugs and

individuals, families and whole communities. The “Well" part
of Wellbriety is the inspiration to go on beyond sobriety
and recovery, committing to a life of wellness and healing
everyday.

Building a World
Class Dojo through Personal Growth in the Art of
Aikido, Family Participation, and Community
Involvement. "Aikido is nonviolence. Every human
being has been entrusted with a mandate from heaven,
and the victory we seek is to overcome all
challenges and fight to the finish, accomplishing
our goals. In Aikido we never attack. If you want to
strike first, to
gain advantage over
someone, that is proof your training is
insufficient, and it is really you yourself who has
been defeated. Let your partner attack, and use his
aggression against him. Do not cower from an attack;
control it before it begins. Nonviolence is the true
practice of Aikido."
