A little plant manages to grow out of the rocks at Mount Edgecombe
So back in January 2021, the first time, Victoria invited me to join her side by side photoblog, the theme was movement (there is some amazing pairings from that theme, worth having a look at).
On day three, I had a plan on taking a picture in the nearby park of me or others running, but then in the cold dark winters night, I saw under light of some lampposts a group of people doing some really powerful and graceful movements with a long stick in unison, like winter Ninjas. It looked intriguing and I asked if a could take a picture of them for photoblog.
They said yes and also invited me to join them in the training, so the following weeks I went to the park to train what turned out to be Aikido.
Now 3 years later, this is a very proud me with my diploma for achieving 3. Kyu in Aikido on june 21st 2024.
It is very ceremonial with a diploma, but love the feeling of achievement when I look at it.
So Thank you Victoria for sending me out on a mission in the world and coming back richer:)
