Kipper started going to aikido classes. He really enjoyed it. The club met once a week in the school hall. The teacher was Mr Otsuki but he told everyone to call him Kenji.

Kipper开始参加合气道课程。 他真的很喜欢。俱乐部每周在学校礼堂开一次会。 老师是大月先生，但他让大家叫他贤治。

"Aikido is a way of feeling," Kenji told them. "You don't need to be strong to defend yourself. Instead, you learn to turn other people's strength against them. Aikido shows you that strength comes from inside you."

“合气道是一种感觉，”贤治告诉他们。 “你不需要很强大来保护自己。 相反，你要学会利用别人的力量来对付他们。 合气道告诉你，力量来自你的内心。”

Kenji taught the class to fall safely without hurting themselves. At first, it was quite hard to do but soon everyone could do a forward roll and land easily. As the weeks went by, the children got better and better at landing and rolling.

健二教学生如何安全坠落而不伤到自己。 起初，这很难做到，但很快每个人都能做一个前滚，很容易着陆。 几个星期过去了，孩子们越来越擅长着陆和滚动。

Kenji began to teach the class to do simple moves against a partner. The moves had Japanese names. Kipper learned to grab his partner's arm and pull it back. He turned his body at the same time and his partner fell to the floor.

贤治开始教学生们做一些简单的对抗伙伴的动作。 这些动作都有日本名字。 Kipper学会了抓住同伴的手臂并把它拉回来。 他同时转过身来，他的搭档倒在地上。
