    I think this is similar to a judo ippon seoi nage but you're turning the opponent rather then yourself. I feel like it's easier to see that the opponents energy is travelling in the same direction as they are being thrown with the seoi nage throw but the principle is the same. Lovely Aikido demo!

    Hi guys,
    I remember watching yer videos some years ago.
    Glad you are still on.
    Recently I discovered a very impressive and who seems unstoppable Riyuji Shirakawa, a very agile and elegant martial artist who also likes to laugh.
    And also an old grand master named Seisiki Abe who taught Ô Sensei calligraphy.
    In a video he barely seems to touch his ukes.
    Amazing.
    Wishing you a happy new year 2024.
    Peace power!

    I think this is great. Most people's first reaction to being startled or attacked is to lock up or try to muscle the attacker back. Aikido's goal seems to be to rewrite that into one of flowing and redireection. So in the early stages of training, and even practinging later on, these circles are a great way to develop that habit. Getting that muacle memory. As always, thanks for posting, guys.

    What do you do against a really good puncher, like a boxer who is not going to go off balance. They are going to punch, if they miss, or are parried, they quickly retract and move. They are used to being parried.

It doesn't matter which martial art you practicing. Even if you do practice with enough realism that still won't guarantee that you won't get punched in the face. Top MMA fighters get punched in the face all the time, what makes Aikido practitioners special?

    Hello brothers! first of all a BIG THANK YOU for your video channel which I find really wonderful and informative! Only I would like to ask you some criticisms if you allow me; first point is that it is regrettable that the real aikido practiced by Morihei Ueshiba during the war in Japan is hidden from us! You had already talked about the fact that traditional aikido is useless in street fighting and in that you are right! Only despite you presenting us with real aikido and its techniques on video, this leaves many of us frustrated at not being able to practice it in real life with a teacher because it is not the same as learning it. virtually and I think you will agree with me. I live in France and I would have liked to find clubs where we practice real aikido but it's a shame to see that this type of learning is only reserved for an elite!

    Hey I get to be the first to comment and I love this video it seems like the way you explained it is almost like when you're learning how to sound out words how you overextend the words to sound it out but then once you learn how to read it you just simply say the word without sounding out anymore and that's kind of like what the breakdown seems like

  • @Marty1857

    Although I enjoy your videos very much, and learn new perspectives from time to time, I feel compelled to disagree here. I think you downplayed the question: what if the opponent is bigger? Hey, there's a huge advantage re: size and strength that has to be addressed. The equation is unbalanced: a larger, stronger individual (either/or, or both) attacks --- such an opponent DEFINITELY has an advantage, a significant one. Obviously, he/she can probably hit harder, for one thing. Also, if the opponent has any experience or training at all, that punch is just the precursor to a barrage of attacks. So, this movement pattern/strategy of getting out of the way and using the opponent's momentum and force to propel him/her to the ground is very good. It nullifies the immediate threat; it takes away a counterattack; it might even injure the attacker, IF he/she hits the ground hard enough, and IF the ground is concrete, or littered with debris, that's a huge bonus! But let's not kid ourselves. The bigger guy has the initial advantage.
    Can Aikido overcome this advantage? Yes! Absolutely! So can Karate, Judo, Wing Chun, American boxing, etc. It call comes down to technique. TECHNIQUE. There are many strategies for dealing with that punch, and most of them have merit, but they are ALL dependent on the practitioner to execute a technique correctly, and with perfect timing. (Martial Arts style is irrelevant, in this circumstance.) Executing a technique with speed, coordination, and determination is so MUCH harder to do in a real situation than it is in simulation, in training. However, if you're not practicing regularly, you're setting yourself up to use a weak, ineffective technique on an aggressive opponent, which is not going to end well for you.
    As you know, there are a limited number of style choices, though there are thousands of styles being taught. Strike, throw, grapple, evade & redirect. (Or, use a weapon, which is generally impractical.) Most martial arts incorporate something of everything in their repertoires, but they generally focus on ONE thing. But it doesn't really matter. It comes down to PRACTICE. I don't think there is an "ultimate" martial art, but even if it existed, if one couldn't pull off the techniques when necessary, then it is useless. Like waving around the "best" handgun, but it's unloaded. And it's not the art (whatever that may be) that's at fault when a technique fails; it's the practitioner. A technique exists because it works; the older the style, the more I'm going to have faith in this. I'm just a bit surprised you didn't stress that, especially in something like Aikido, which has little room for error.

    12 years ago I was doing TKD and Aikido. I preferred Aikido but the dojo had a clich vibe to it and I wasn't part of it.
    One day during TKD training, we had this exercise where to other members would rush you and you had to deal with it. I just moved and let them go by with a slight push and they'd go onto the mat. It was effortless.
    In the moves you were showing, I think if you parry the punch and let them keep moving forward via momentum, a swift punch in the kidney would stop the situation. Just a thought.

    Since it looks like topics are starting to kind of wind down, one thing I would hope you would both consider doing is actually analyzing real attacks in news videos and, reenacting same, show how an Aikidoflower would or should defend against same. For example it was in the news this week in my locale this punching attack by one golfer on another on the links .. What would Azu do ? 😄 ua-cam.com/video/47VPAvw-yAs/v-deo.html

    No experienced martial artist will ever allow himself to get so unbalanced in a punch.
    No matter what style, nobody with either street or sparring experience. The idea that
    anyone ever will unbalance himself enough to make this work against even stronger and
    heavier opponents is totally delusional, though this will probably work for people who
    do have a lot of real fight experience in grappling situations and when being attacked
    with a long and heavy weapon like a club or rod. As these aikido techniques were
    actually designed for such situations. But I repeat: Never will this work against anyone
    from a striking style like boxing, kick boxing, karate, never. For the basis (kihon) in all of these
    is footwork combined with striking, that is striking and being able to continue striking with as
    much bodyweight thrown in as possible without unbalancing yourself , that is without preventing
    yourself from moving and continuing striking.

      @divinesitcom9118 5 місяців тому +1

      The type of person disciplined enough to seriously train isn’t who these guys are preparing to fight against, as that’s highly unlikely. This clearly is geared toward defending yourself against someone that is unbalanced within themselves and may fight in a wild manner that would make them vulnerable to Aikido techniques. This probably wouldn’t work against Canelo, but some random dude that thinks his biceps training makes him the strongest dude in the room might be a touch over confident.
