太りすぎ動作が緩慢。素人の酔っぱらい相手なら、かろうじて効くかなというレベル。

Would folding a larger Keiko-Gi be the same way?

Thank You Sensei

I think it’s thought to be useless because it’s not made for competing in a ring or cage. It’s made for police officers, bouncers and prison guards who all use Aikido in the job on a daily basis. There is a reason why prison guards, bouncers and police officers don’t use MMA, boxing or wrestling on the job. Otherwise they’d be using it. They use Aikido. And what these nimrods that watch MMA don’t understand and cannot comprehend is that people that practice Aikido don’t have the slightest interest in competition.

You touched on something very important ....I started at 48 and in a foreign language and one of the things I figured out really quickly was my goal was each class. Each achievement was of great value and every success should be celebrated but more importantly every failure was another chance to look at it differently.... And that is something i now truly value to the extent that now even if we just do ikkyo for 3 or 4 months every time is my chance to try something different...so that it is my aikido.

Aikido is a martial art that works until old age. Imagine if u r an old guy living in a village and a bunch of unarmed dudes comes to rape ur village . Even the old age will pick up weapons to fight. And if that old guy is a master of Shihonage, wouldn’t it be hard to grab his hands to stop him from stabbing his enemies? This is why o sensei say all u really need to master is shihonage. Aikido is used with a weapon.

How can you develop "nerves of steel", and how do you know if you will be able to stand stoically in the face of fear if your training is not pressure tested? If you want to see an example of nerves of steel, watch the fight between Manny Pacquiao and David Diaz. Diaz was taking a beating. Pac was just smashing Diaz for 11-rds, yet Diaz remained calm, doing his best to fight back and to continue coming forward despite the fact he was getting the living daylights beat out of him. It's Diaz's training that got him through that. This is what composure under adversity is all about, and it can only be developed through pressure testing during training. Steel needs to be tempered. For steel to be tempered, you need heat. I'm not saying that you should beat the living daylights out of each other in training, but there needs to be some resistance and controlled pressure testing involved. There's safe ways to introduce realistic resistance and pressure testing into training without increasing the risk for injury.

The Human Anatomy, mirrored. The way I see it …take all the, shoulder wrestling, work out of it by leveraging it from Torifune. allowing for torque and torsion and other unseen phenomena. We find out, in Aikido practice by, watching, seeing, feeling, how the Human Anatomy is built, its architecture, its structure, its geometry and pay attention to how it effects the same mirrored, "Uke," in practice through repetition, movement, body weight and weapons discipline. We can be open and ego-less enough to allow the subconscious to inform us intuitively of its own recognitions and interpretation as we progress and evolve. This will allow us to innovate. This is not as difficult as it looks on paper.

Love the podcast, thank you 👍👍

I think the reason many people misunderstand aikido, and they make fun and mock it is mainly because in many (notice I did not say "all") aikido schools, the training methods do not appear to be realistic to them. So they see uke comically running at nage with out stretched arms, trying to grab his wrist. Or they see uke deliver a theatrical, exaggerated "karate chop" type of strike from overhead. They see Steven Seagal doing "randori" against five guys who attack him one by one, and he easily throws all of them, with many of them going flying through the air even without him touching them. And they question it because they wonder, "How the heck can that be real when even a world champion boxer, a really good wrestler, or a really good BJJ practitioner would have great difficulty defeating just two people, let alone five. In addition, since many aikido schools do not pressure test their techniques, that causes added doubt in people's minds. So when people see this, they laugh because it does not look genuine to them. So I think this is why aikido is misunderstood and receives a lot of trash talk. In my experience, it is rare for people to doubt the authenticity of western boxing, muay thai, BJJ, judo, or wrestling. Because all they need to do is test it out for themselves at the gym, and they'll quickly find out how helpless they are against a trained practitioner in any of those disciplines. When I first started BJJ, a tiny 110-lb female blue belt locked in a triangle on me so fast that before I even knew what was happening, she was already squeezing and pulling my head down. She kindly released the choke when she realized that I didn't even know what was going on. It's a very humbling experience to see 90-lb 7th graders are having their way with grown men.

These videos are a wonderful resource. Thank you for sharing. Your podcast is fantastic too.

In what way is Aikido misunderstood?

I believe Aikido to be useless

Basho. 😊

Bosho.

3:58 Thinking of the jo as coming from the spear and rotating it is a powerful realization. Thank you!

1989 I was working on my psychology degree, I remember taking a philosophy class, the teacher gave us the final. He said, define love. Damn, I couldn’t write anything. I asked the teacher if, i could take the class with him again. Well, the second time, I learned of phenomenology which was from husseral who taught heidgger. I then learned of Kitano Nishida and Zen Buddhism. That was my search for what is the meaning of life. I still am searching. I am still a biginner 😅

Excellent thank you for your effort.

Very good podcast, thank you for sharing.

Excellent!

Hello and thank you for the informative interview. I’d be curious to know your thoughts and opinions on Mochizuki Minoru, Founder of Yoseikan Budo. Domo Arigato Gozaimasu 🙇🏻‍♂️

Two and half years and dick is still a white belt 😂

5:45 I have a big target 😂😂 ✌️legend😂

😊

Excellent 💝

Thank you Aikido Center 2012 to 2020. I worked in Jeffersonvill Indiana, Mishawaka indiana , elkhart indiana , Shepardvill kentucy and waxahachie texas. I practiced basic aikido in the snow, the rain and I lend from Sensei. Fuyura Waffle House restaurant. I found and read my used books from 4am to 8am and then go to work. I read Psychology, philosophy , science and Aikido books. Wow, I needed that time. Today, I continue my reading habit, but to be honest back in Downey California. Gratitude 😅

❤❤❤

Wonderful. It is very similar to taichi quan, bafa quan and other internal kung fu. I wonder what saw to add to Morihei Ueshiba his already stong abilities, what was the intended combination of arts. Obviously at least a desire to complement style of sword fighting or similar.

Unfortunately you can clearly see that the Sensei is unable to do anything and the students throw themselves to the ground.....after all, that's how it works in Aikido, they touch you with a finger and you fly....but you fly why do you launch yourself!

Good video on atemi

43:03 - so I don't understand where you're coming from and what's your position. First you say that young kids and 60 year olds should not learn to breakfall because it's too dangerous for them. Then here you talk about how your mind limits you, and you start to talk about how old people in Japan taking ukemi. You seem to be advocating for opposite things here, causing me to not know where you actually stand on these issues.

20:51 - not teaching kids to break fall... I've never understood the logic behind this. When my kids started judo at ages 5 and 10, their sensei spent the first two months having them only do breakfall. No randori at all for those first two months. Just solid breakfall training, over and over and over again, until they became very proficient in breakfalling. If taught properly, why is this dangerous? Young kids that age, are learning much more complicated and dangerous things, such as gymnastics, and doing complex skateboarding tricks. In fact, my kids learning how to break fall in judo has saved them countless of times when one of them fell backwards out of a tree; tripped and fell down a long flight of stairs; went over the handle bars on their bicycle, falling off of their skateboards, etc. Learning breakfalling, and learning how to dissipate the force, even on asphalt and concrete, saved their skulls and saved them from losing a mouthful of teeth.

Where can I buy an Aikido Gi?

When I was young and still living on my hometown got some books of Koichi Tohei on Aikido when he was Ushi Deshi of Master Ueshiba Sensei, since then I wanted to study Aikido, then later I moved to Ensenada in Baja California, and study Karate briefly until I found a couple of French people who lived there because they had business in town related to fishing, but on their free time in a warehouse build a rudimentary tatami and went there unfortunately it didn’t last long, but a few days before their company moved to another city, then I moved to Tijuana and in San Diego there was a guy who teached Aikijujitsu, but crossing the border everyday to go and take a class, was not practical for me, since it can take hours to cross, finally when I moved to Los Angeles I looked at the yellow pages telephone book and visited every Aikido Dojo there was, actually our Dojo was the first, and saw a class, but Ivisited every other dojos that now I dont even remember! And decided the first place was the best and went there and inscribed there, do not remember the exact date 1985 or 86. And I was there with you guys until I got a job in Santa Monica six days a week from 9AM to 6PM and with traffic it was just impossible to get to class on time, when most of the time I would get home, if luckily at eight, or nine at night and my apartment was near Vermont St. still some distance from Little Tokyo and our Dojo. Although I have great memories from those years at the Dojo and Sensei Furuya.♥️🙏

There should be an uke class where old ppl practice throwing and young ppl taking ukemi. In the perfect world

When I started aikido I was 13/14, Osensei, was still alive,Aikido was one. Then his death changed everything and my training.I was very resilient. I could do rolls on the asphalt and did!:)lol Now at 71 no way!. I did a soft syle aikido 10 years ago and i am thinking of restarting for the summer.Will see how i do.Cardio is definitely down.

I think if you are looking for an out. Age is your excuse. I have spoken with doctors who tell us that Aikido is very healthy to build our body and physical endurance and heart strength. Thus creating longer livelihood. ❤

Aikido works if you sell your soul over to demonic forces

Aikido is lethal for the one walking the streets thinking this bs would actually save you from a dangerous situation.

It's debatable whether or not Kimura was the greatest judoka. And there was someone before him. Kyuzo Mifune is regarded by many as the most skilled judoka.

Hi can you please, show us a difference between Sokumen Iriminage and Chosen Irimi nage

That looks fun to practice

I just saw an ad on how to become a Yubiwaza master in an old issue of Tales of Suspense from 1964. They weren't lying!!!

Mukauuto korotekinaschi. Is this right? Is there some other Source or link. I would like to Read about it. Im Searching to become undefeatable in Spiritual way.

I was fortunate to study for about 12 years with him until work related issues did not allowed me to continue, simply enough my new job was too far from the Dojo, and be there at class time.

Oss sensei Warrior morihei ❤

I see why his students went a different direction with things.

Thank you for sharing 😊

This, is awesome. Thank you.

Thank you !
