Great Sensei! I would add that she is one of the most respectuous and soft (but not weak) teacher, very careful and never hurting her students or partners. Very good spirit!
Super interview. Merci a Hélène et à Guilluame pour ce moment de partage. Comme Hélène je pense que l'Aïkido a un public dormant qui ne demande qu'à participer. C'est à nous d'harmoniser notre message et notre pratique pour faire fleurir l'Aïkido à nouveau!
Bonjour Hélène Loïc enchanté j ai pratiqué l aïkido 5ans j adore cette harmonie entre les gens du monde entier congratularions mon n'amie loic votre élève
What a very nice interview. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Many thanks. Paul Araki-Metcalfe, Perth, Western Australia. Aikikai Godan and Yagyu Shinkage-Ryu Shihan.
Very interesting video. It’s always refreshing to have the testimony of a female sensei. However when it comes to why aikido popularity is decreasing (especially in regards to 18-25 demographics) it’s mostly because of it’s lack of effectiveness. The attacks are not realistic, so the defenses are not realistic either. Also, there’s no sparring (not even low-light intensity) and with availability of information and videos on the internet, potential students “shop” around and realize very quickly that judo, karate, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Kung fu, May Thai, Krav maga, etc..., also provide a way to exercise, to relieve stress but also are more effective than aikido. Unfortunately modern day aikido is no more than “moving yoga” disguised as a martial art. Still very nice video and Sensei Doué seems very nice and genuine.
After almost 20 years in Aikido (teaching for approx 10 years, I have to agree. Only one sensei I practiced for dared to bring this matter up.. and his Aikido did work, no matter how you attacked, and he really demanded real strong attacks. Unfortunately he past away some years ago. Today i just cant do it anymore, just because of this. Modern Aikido is a great tool for reasearching yourself and life, just like tai chi or yoga.. but it does not work as selfdefense. Still love the flow in it though.
Sadly, aikido federation does not understand, why they lose students, more than 50% in the first year. They are blind, aikidoka should practice another budo, and at first how to strike... I practice aikido myself in federal first and how to do technic if your opponent don't know how to do a punch. I continue aikido, but, in another school (kishinkai) , who teacher have interest in another martial art (they invite another teacher of another martial art to expose they art), are focus on the efficiency of the technics.
Unfortunately I disagree. If you infuse the competition like the other fighting sports like judo, bjj or karate, you are removing the most important principle and reason why osensei developed it in first place. The techniques are meant to be simple but you will need time to become one with them. And with that you can handle attacks of various forms. It’s really about internalising the spirit and principle of the art and become more effective. The young people today don’t have patience to develop themselves long enough to see themselves achieving the principle of the art. But for the question of losing students, we don’t have this problem in this part of the world. May be its got to do with my the instructors who can inspire and live by the principles of osensei? May be the art has spread too far and the standards in other part of the world has deviated.
Most students were lost after one year 30 years ago. And the present generation has more stuff to commit/not commit to than ever. As for effectiveness, whatever the choice Pareto says that the 80% of us will win 20% of the fights. Embrace the suck, we're in for fighting not for winning.
Merci pour l interview. Personne charmante et posée. Si je peux me permettre trop de "voilà" c'est un tique de langage classique quand on a pas l'habitude des interviews.
J' ai pratiqué de nombreuses années avec un élève de C Tissier : très mauvaise expérience pour moi : j'ai même eu l'impression de régresser physiquement. L' ambiance du dojo était très très austère et le professeur absolument pas souriant. Il ne comprenait pas que les élèves ne soient pas tous des Mozart de l'aikido. Pour ma part, la pratique était très ludique et cela ne correspondait pas du tout à l'ambiance recherchée qui était très doloriste et un peu masochiste. Par la suite, je suis allé m'entrainer en karaté et mon nouveau dojo était aux antipodes : souriant, tolérant, pédagogue. De plus j' y ai appris à me défendre en cas d'agression que qui n'est pas la vocation de l'aikido 🙂

Young woman. But, she is a sensei! Nice!
