- Tony Schaufelberger sensei from Quiet Confidence Aikido explores the ideas of Aiki and Musubi, demonstrating how basic techniques allow us to explore these concepts and better understand the ideas of connection by creating 'volume' between us and our partner.

"Volume" is not a term I've heard used before in Aikido, but it perfectly describes the "critical space" created when one uses the unbendable arm . Interesting.
A big thanks to Tony for giving up his time.
I havent seen a hanmi-handachi technique for years! Well presented session, good instructor
Tony is such and interesting teacher, and often describes things in a way, using different semantics that connect with people when a more traditional explanation wouldnt. great stuff
much more daitoryu vibe than "contemporary Aikido", which tbh is a good thing :)
nice job,
This used to be pretty standard syllabus stuff, but often missed nowadays
Great explanation.
Thanks Joseph, yep Tony has a really nice way of putting things across.
Bouyancy (positive and negative) plus combined structure is something worthwhile exploring in the grappling arts. In the context of controlling the centre of gravity whilst gaining mechanical advantage or at least being sufficiently aware of how both can improve one's position in a contested sphere.
Could you explain in more detail what you mean by "positive and negative bouyancy" please Dan?
@AIKIDOSILVERDALE I believe you may refer to 'weight under side' and an extension of that is my use of an analogy with buoyancy control whilst scuba diving. Control over your rising or falling centre of gravity within a given inertial reference frame. The current of the water propels you in a direction, but you can expand or compress your occupied volume to influence your buoyancy, which influences how you actually move within the water flow.
@AIKIDOSILVERDALE Something that is positively buoyant tends to float up and, conversely, a negative buoyancy leads to sinking. Your body's ability to occupy different volumes directly impacts its density.
@@ddturnerphd so would "negative buoyancy" basically become otoshi from an application POV?
@@AIKIDOSILVERDALE Yes, dropping or sinking is effectively a contraction that sees the combined structure's centre of gravity fall.
Without musubi there is no connection, without connection there is no kuzushi
I coulddnt agree more.
But "how" you connect is critical. loos connections create lag.
👍👍
If you change your point of balance as shown here ,your opponent can still misuse it by giving you a head knock .So make sure to build in another defence .In a street fight there is no time for grabbing unless you combine it with kyusho / jiu jutsu . But maybe i'm wrong ,ive only done shaolin kempo for a few years in the 1980's .
Good points Edwin, but tbh I think these were more exercises to show a principle rahter than actual waza to be used specifically. I'm only saying that because i've seen Tony teach this idea a lot using different shapes to convey the ideas.
Do you know if there are any exercises where you can practice this expansion in solo training?
To a certain extent the weapons traing give you this, but really one of the most critical aspects is how good the connection to the partner is, and you cant experience that as a solo drill.
