i quit seeking for aikido classes, some twenty years ago, because the classes I found were so fake and out of armony. since I found your aikido channel I'm motivated to go back to aikido. this is the way I was originally taught
hi siauliai, youre doing really good videos. I'm just a beginner and did the first step on the journey of aikido only a few weeks ago.So I'm interessted in every information about aikido i can get. When I watch your vid's you remember me about a young man living lonely in Brussels. He was my neighbour. Every trainingday he asked me, if I want to join, but I wasn't able what he was invinting me too. This days my biggest wish I had taken his hand. Pls keep your channel alive. I look forward to every of your videos.
Hello Micheal and thank you for sharing. It always means a lot for me to hear that people find the videos useful. In terms of the man, we all have some regrets, most of them we can't change, but it's important that we live our lives at this moment in such a way, that we would not regret it later :) PS: There will be more videos!
Thank you, Sensei ! In our Aikido class, the instructors leave us to figure out for ourselves how to do it after performing the techniques three or four times. But since this requires high level of concentration and keen observation to master the overwhelming amount of details, so not just any one can fare well. So I think approaching Aikido techniques from their basic principles is a great way to practice the art.
The main principle of Aikido techniques is the spiral. "The mystery of Aiki is revealed in dual opposing spirals, one rising on the right, one sinking on the left." - Morihei Ueshiba.
Aiki is to have balance of in and yo in your body. This makes you non resistant. The techniques are an external expression and can be found in other arts, but without the internal balance are just the application of leverage.
Great video, Sensei Rokas! i started Aikido two months ago and your videos are helping me so much to understand this beautiful art! Thanks very much! Greetings from Brazil! ( sorry for my poor english haha)
The Video is Pretty awesome ! I started learning Aikido 2 weeks ago and I can saying am quickly improving because this video Serves as an after lesson guide for me! Expecially understanding the basics and the reasons behind the Technics! More Strength to you Sensei Rokas! Greetings to you from Cameroon
@@WorldlyBudget Brazilian jiu-jitsu gyms tend to be competition oriented. I don't like competition, I love martial arts for their culture, not to go outside punching people.
looking back at this video show how much you've changed and now become a highly functional fighter/martial artist !!! aikido is very logical in theory but the way of training is super lacking in resistance/live opponent.
I do karate like my thing is karate but this seems interesting and thinking of starting aikido. I like the physics and the redirection of movement, i thinks that's interesting.
1:50 I’m sorry but I’m looking on how not to get my ass beat in a life or death situation. Partners attempt at a block already put me off, the instructors hand up... wtf is that?! You’re not blocking anything with that, left hook and he’s slumped because he wanted to look cool putting his hand out, instead of covering his head with the whole arm that he has. Next go to 2:52, I’m not the most versed fighter but look at the partner, his weak hand is getting grabbed by the opponents lead hand. Now the partner’s power hand is loaded up, in the right distance to clean “masters” clock. “Master” is stuck because he used his closest hand to grab the other dudes weak hand while using a lot of focus to do so. The other guy is just throwing a textbook 1-2 and will win that exchange. Guys pls look into karate to start, it keeps yours hands safe when punching and teaches timing and distance. From there go to boxing then Muay Thai and finally bjj. Learn the barebones of those styles, and you should be solid.
I know you've gotten into MMA and I was watching Jeff Chan speak about how Aikido could work against a brawler who tends to swing and hyperextend. I'm a bit into MMA myself but I would like to learn that type of defense. I think I've watched the kill bills too many times and I want that Pai Mei ease of manipulation
I actually trained in judo, now i wonder how good it will be if i apply aikido, i mean i will still throw the opponent but bringing them out of balance or stepping out of the way to get a clear position to perform a hip throw, one of the basic throw of judo and making it more effortless
@tpwkjagus with the weapon, maybe. Other than that, MMA far and away best fighting form. Aikido vs someone completed untrained, ok but someone that knows how to fight, no.
i love aikido but i don't like it being a bit non-violent, i would homebrew my aikido by doing the basic throat takedown, i don't let go of him if he tries to stand up i push him to the ground,again,again and again......to much violences?
Good beginning, especially until the the principle No 3 revealingthe active way of using Aikido, not everyoneteaches it at the beginning. Going further, however the IRIMI should have been completed by its URA approach using first a simpler version of turns, the Tenka ashi, and only then the Tenkan may come which opens the final solution to GIVING SPACE , say Extra dimension to a new beginning of whirling movements. Tome, as a beginner, the end was a bit overcomplicated. Paul,68,retired instructor of Karate, fan of Aikido.
I live in a place where there is no one to teach or no ways of learning martial arts from somewhere. Is there a way to learn martial arts from home? If there is, then how should I start learning it? Can anyone tell me something please?
There's actually nothing wrong with these principles and techniques, but I realised that you would have to be significantly stronger than your opponent to pull them off i.e. I could do all these against my 11 yr old son (who is a judoka btw). However, if you were that dominant over someone else, you could in theory do almost anything you want.
Old videos is nice 👌 true facts your teacher how he or her training the students is just like Miyagi depends on your teacher is he teaching you the truth will receive a bad teacher
@@MartialArtsJourney I appreciate that you replied to this and kept the video up. We can see the journey and you stop people from going down the aikido rabbit hole
No wonder that you has many guestions about aikido. It is hard to say this but your way to practice and teach aikido is NOT the way Ueshiba teach and practice. Your way is Ueshibas sons "university aikido", soft and nice way. I don't say that aikikai aikido is not good but it is not practical. You should study some books (Ueshibas books Budo and Budo Training in Aikido) and study how Morihiro Saito and Hitohiro Saito teach principles. For example there is no diffirence between kihon and nagare (you can not practice very basic techniques from static position -kihon- the way you show those techniques, nagare way) in your techniques, you say nothing about kokyo ho, your stance is not good at all (your posture is not good and that's why you have no power (you need to practice kokyo ho) etc . Aikido is not for sport fighting, there is better way to practice sport. There is better way to practice self-defense or knife fighting. BUT. Aikido, if you practice proper way, is pretty goof for self-defense, guards and for security personnel etc. I have lot of experience about that. There is no more Iwama Aikido in Finland, it is a pity. But in Sweden there is Lars Göran Andersson and other guys who practice with Morihiro Saito in Iwama, in the birth place of aikido.
So that's why Kano Jigoro, father of aikido, called aikido the true judo. Also, that's how aikijutsu existed on the battlefields. That's also how Rokas has been applying aikido in the Ultimate Self Defence Championship recently after getting training in other martial arts.
Practising with a compliant uke is all very well. If you were attacked by someone bigger and stronger than you who was genuinely trying to hurt you, how effective would any of this be, do you suppose? Also, attacks do not typically begin with someone grabbing you hand. I don't mean to be discourteous, but this art, it seems to me, is strong in elegance and weak in effectiveness.
Apocalypse 8 42 JESUS IS GOD accept GOD JESUS YOUR GOD AND SAVIOUR ACTS 10 42 JESUS IS GOD 1 COLONIANS GOD JESUS IS IMAGE OF INVISIBLE GOD PROVERBS 2 3 6 TRUST THE GOD JESUS WITH ALL YOUR HEART ❤️
Yeah I remember very fight I’ve been in where my attacker grab my hand before he hit me lol 😂 ( sarcasm ) my god your technique is always open and missing a lot of obvious points , I’ve never had a guy pick me that tried aikido on me but fuck seeing this I now know now that I’d have him down gasping for air in like about 2.2 seconds Thanks lol
What everyone does not see. Is I do not want to be there. When his attack comes. If your Aiki is pure. You won't be there. That where the spinning top mentality. I just won't be there. And as I become the centrifical force of the hurricane where you are. But I am the calm in the eye of the storm. I'm just getting out of your dumbass way.
What a joke aikido is it’s not effective at all in real time I’ve done taekwondo and boxing I’d beat any of these stupid masters what is this dancing gone wrong.

I like how non-violent Aikido seems. Thank you for sharing!
@Mr Sloth Well, I did say “seems” instead of “is” for a reason. Thank ya for the insight though, your thought has been counted.
Most Eastern martial arts were non violent and made for self defense
Lol it's not non-violent it just depend on the people who use it
Someone once said that it’s a martial art that’s not meant to kill but is very easy to do
@@TheJokerMan2 That’s why so many UFC fighters use it 🤡 useless even the teacher has gave it up and now does MMA 😂

Interesting. Why did you choose learning Aikido instead of Brazilian Ju-Jitsu/MMA?
@@WorldlyBudget Brazilian jiu-jitsu gyms tend to be competition oriented. I don't like competition, I love martial arts for their culture, not to go outside punching people.
who is here to learn and protect themselves from being bullied? me

Me too sorta but I took martial arts before and I'm in high school now
me too! I'm in highschool now 4TH year
Hit the gym bro. Daily, medium hard. I'm serious.
No I don't want to hurt ant one
do kickboxing/ wrestling
This is an art. No one will attack you in that manner in real life. No disrespect.
Yeah he knows he does mma too
In What Manner Would No One Attack You In Real Life Do You Speak Of.?

Very Refreshing.

Thank You very much for Your lessons. 🙏🍀🌞
No! It’s a reference point to start from. Once you learn the flow from there, then you apply to real attacks
As an art form, I love it. For self defense, absolutely no way.
Why? Just curious
@tpwkjagus with the weapon, maybe. Other than that, MMA far and away best fighting form. Aikido vs someone completed untrained, ok but someone that knows how to fight, no.
Love your videos. Your explanations are easy to understand.
Awesome! These techniques really means a lot, they reveals the perfect self defense in difficult times.

However, as time has show none of this works for real. Try it with rules in the cage and see how you end up, let alone a real situation with no rules.

This is not the principles of aikido, the principal's is momentum of your partner.
