jonnyblaze777: You have failed to see that the most important guiding philosophy of Aikido isn't to escalate violence but to redirect it, and if possible, de-escalate it.

beautiful saito-style aikido; BTW whats the name of the amazing background tune ?

[@jonnyblaze777]

very nice but very seldom are attackers so predictable and are not always going to grasp or allow you to grab them a simple smash to the hand of the grabber and the hand is broken in wing chun we use pak sao to defeat a grab followed by strikes a good striker will not allow a grab not as easy as you may think
while the art is nice to look at and can have value I see this as its main weakness..

[@kokorosan61]

Was she really a student of Morihiro Saito O Sensei ?... No commitment of the hip and projection with the shoulders on kokyu nage !? Typically Aikikai style... :-(

Congratulations, in just a few seconds of video you have identified in her a major flaw that Saito Sensei himself never spotted despite years upon years of direct teaching. Impressive.
