This one week, "Horn" probably represents the high point for the common Tendoryu Aikidoka in years and outline the deep black forest, far from the metropolitan bustle, 50-60 Aikido friends join annually for five days of intensive training with Shimizu Sensei in the National Training Centre Duke Horn.
On Sunday at 9:30 Eating clock started, and after about 6 hours of very temperature-heavy trip was the Essenes Tendoryu delegation to the Black Forest. The first evening was heralded by many "and-how-does-it-you-so?" Talks, the acclaimed commentary Argentina game and the first walk on the actual horn. We were all excited to see what will bring the week and the first training Sun 
The daily schedule is highly regulated. A strict timetable arranged together in the week. 8:00 clock breakfast, 10:00 Morning session, then the opportunity for lunch and dinner walk, 16:00 clock afternoon session, 18:00 clock Dinner with final Arts in company. For Boredom was because of time.
75 minutes per training unit should not be a challenge, we're used to eating in some time. But as each year the special circumstances in particular appreciates the significant height difference with the thinner air, please. After 15 minutes Dogi moisture and volume through "hackles" were high. With about 55 participants also offered the mat area, no large space, especially in the case of partner filing temporarily caused a particularly high attention.
Waka Sensei and Sensei performed again Tendoryu Aikido world-class and caused by a variety of technology selection for extreme Kurzweil during training. The anecdotes of Sensei offered between exercises for a short breather, and the painful patience in seiza as it opportunity. After each unit was as usual a bit "Nachtrainiert" before it went to refresh in the shower.
Finally, one can say that this training week went by much too quickly. The units were technically and physically very demanding. At this point our valued training partner, "Horn debutant Thomas Lenk be acknowledged, has made on the mat, a very good picture and showed remarkable stamina.
So I will say only that I have personally learned a lot this week, and off the mat, and am looking forward to next year.
