Katsuaki Asai Shihan

Katsuaki Asai Shihan was dispatched to Germany by the Aikikai Hombu Dojo at the tender age of 23. In 1967 he established the Aikikai of Germany and has since devoted himself to spreading aikido in his adopted country. Here Asai Shihan gives us a glimpse of his efforts over the past 26 years which led to the birth and development of the Aikikai of Germany.

One of the greatest Shihan of Aikido in the history.

43 years ago I had Katsuaki Asai as an Aikido teacher in a dojo in Cologne, Germany. Fantastic experience impossible to ever forget.

I really enjoy the way asai shihan incorporates the jo to show the structure of the technique.

[@barrystelling1102]

Good demonstration: complete review of basic techniques; done slow and fast; and with good-heartedness and laughter. Got to love Aikido!

[@aikifab]

What I like in this video is the gradation of the techniques : first with the jo, then slowly, then at full speed

[@MrsLianell]

[@silafuyang8675]

The ukes overdo it, not a good demonstration. Martial arts are serious business, not comedy. If someone wants to see comedy, watch UFC, WWF etc.

[@miketurley8272]

@813 fake .there is no way he is throwing them!!!!!!!!!

[@musashi5062]

beautiful dancing it is not Aikido
