obviously there is no style better than the rest...but damn!....Nishio's approach was very technical, and paid very close attention to every detail. Truely proficient!
A really good explanation of iriminage and the recognition of the role of strikes in Aikido. Interesting that you have chosen the portrait of O'Sensei that I have.
I like the way he is using Atemi to get his uke off balance, uke's back foot is pinned to the floor and, his other foot is going light. Therefore not giving uke the chance to regain his centre.
Of all the Aikido variations, I find Nishio Sensei's application the best. TY for providing a great tutorial. Wish I had the opportunity to train with Aikidoka who are proficient in his style.
I originally trained in the Tohei style in the early 70's but when I later trained in the Nishio style the difference was great (in the Aikido world that is). Simply put for me personally, it was safer and it made sense. This is not to denigrate Sensei Tohei in anyway his contribution to Aikido can not be understated.
Very nice...arigato gozaimashita...I especially liked the explanation on what happens if we want to just practice the technique without the atemi...what is Hombu saying about that? I guess that is most likely what happened to Aikido going mainstream...that's sad...Aikido enthusiasts are very lucky to have senseis like Philip Greenwood out there...thanks again!
if you're referring to hombu aikikai then most likely they won't practice any atemi waza at all and just focus on just the flow. Unlike Iwama ryu that does pre empt every technique with atemi first as it was done by o sensei himself according to saito sensei and nishio.
When I practiced Nishio Budo I think very often like 'Ok if you did karate a lot of time you may afford spear strike but I definitely break my fingers in attempt to do that'
I think of this as 'occupying the centreline'. Either protecting your own or invading your opponent's. It's hard for the opponent to strike you if he feels like he needs to deal with something right in his space. Similarly it's hard for the opponent to strike you if your target is constantly covered. Works well in my type of sparring.
My sensei (Dennis Hooker) always referred to Aikido as the art of polishing the stone. It takes all the rough edges off of the martial artist. There is no one best style. however, it has its place and has come in very useful in my personal self defense. Many see Aikido as a pacifist style. yet when you actually understand the implied strikes, it can be a devastating art. Please be a keyboard commando elsewhere.
@@fnulnu5297 A brave claim, yet that doesn't give you the right to censor anyone mister. In fact, and although maybe not in the proper way, his point is valid, since no aikido practitioner of any kind / style / school has dared to demonstrate _firts_ in any type of stage and in a public way, the effectiveness of the aikido technique against another authentic martial athlete and his technique in a serious (and systematic) encounters. No ever. Therefore, confrontation is only natural to occur. I was an amateur kickboxing fighter for about fifteen years and a 4th Dan in kosen judo. In my humble experience within the ring and the mat, I can affirm indeed that aikido does in fact has a series of very useful _physical and mechanical principles_ integrated into its techniques. However, for these (taijutsu) principles to really _polish_ shine, it is necessary _true_ pressure (degrees of violence) to deal with. A daily diligent cross-training at maximum resistance, strength and speed to learn how to handle adrenaline shocks as a basic step if effectiveness is intended. Only crude sparring can do this for anyone and it's the part that I notice that it hurts the most to admit to aikido guys. Without these elements for aikido-ka to develop, then it is indeed a fairy tale as far as _effectiveness_ is concerned. Unfortunately, without any form or level of sparring ( let's not say competition) within the aikido _ethos_ there is no way to authentically test the _true_ effectiveness of aikido training in any way (demos and seminars prove anything). If it can't be done within the inner circle of the aikido (only _with_ aikido technique) much less can you expect anything outside of it. Whatever the philosophy, sadly, the truth is painful.

This gave me an idea on how I can apply this technique in my BJJ sparring.
Nice techniques.. very practical

So instructive, thanks

More of this, please.
Spot on !

ASSEZ pédagogique comme intervention pour les débutants MERCI thank you so much
Nicely explain and shown love his style
Good to see the emphasis on atemi, after all without atemi the throws and locks won’t work.

Poor guy
as long as its not tested in real sparring conditions its all fairy tale
As a practitioner of nearly 7 years... I agree but some techniques are for body movement and principles
Tell me more, war master.
