I quit Aikido practice after about 3 years (25 years ago!?!?!?!) because I was just too obsessed and suffering frequent, chronic over training with lot of unpleasant symptoms. I do think there might well be good carry over though between shikko and suri-waza to TGU's@GeoffreyLevens
You _started_ aikido at 40? Wow, respect. I thought I was elderly to start it, and I was about 26, mumble mumble years ago.
Since I have mentioned it a few times on these forums, did you find shikko and suri-waza helpful in the TGU, by any chance? TGUs are some of my 'best' movements, and I feel like those exercises were a big help.
Again, it's really interesting seeing people picking up this movement tip from all kinds of different disciplines.
