Thanks for the feedback, it's filmed live and sometimes the background audio is not ideal. I'd recommend trying listening again with some earphones, it might help. And I thanks for taking the time to comment 🙏😊

@@pablocorrea8752 spot on!

Hey Joel, thanks the kind words. Hope you are well. A big hug to you, Michael 😊

Thanks a lot bro! Hope it was useful

Thanks for the feedback. Looks can be deceptive - even more so through the lens of the camera. What is the specific question on weight distribution?

@@TAKEMUSUAIKIDO Thank you very much for responding. The question was; at the end of the impact / hit and as you drop your weight, is your weight 50/50 % on the front and the back foot, or is it more like 80% on the front foot?

@@LW07UTB speaking ideally, and really depending on the form and intention within the form. The weight for example in the 1st Suburi (as a basic kihon practice) - would be aiming for 50/50 weight distribution in the feet, front and back, after the cut. The practice can be seen as taking all the weight to the back leg during the raise (99-100%) and then into an engaged 50/50% weighting for the cut - then either continuing to the next cut or alternatively returning to a neutral evenly weighted kamae. This is further explained in the video. HOWEVER, When things go fast and fluid, these ideals are also fluid. Hope this helps and please feel free to discuss further.

@@TAKEMUSUAIKIDO Excellent! Thanks

@@LW07UTB you're welcome

Us too 🔥

Sacrasm or genuine?

@@TAKEMUSUAIKIDO Buena observación, lo cierto es que el aikido es muy elegante y vistoso, en una situación de defensa personal es muy efectivo para esquivar o lesionar y huir, no es útil en un combate prolongado

The bokken is made from Ipe - Brazilian walnut.

@@TAKEMUSUAIKIDO 哪里能买到？什么价格？谢谢

Hello Phillipe. Sorry for my late reply but I was just forwarded your question. The form I show in the video is as far as I can remember the way I learned it from Sensei during my stay there. Moving off the line in move 16 is a logical move since you are in fact triangulating off the line of attack while subsequently entering with gedan gaeshi. However if you want another authoritative opinion check on this point I suggest you contact Ethan Weisgard (through Facebook) and ask him as he knows the details of Sensei's weapon system well. Hope that helps and Greetings. Lewis

What real life situation?

@@ninjamaster7724 real life situation is to stay out of it

@@carlavalverde2604 and don't hope that aikido will defend you if shit hits the fan.

@@TAKEMUSUAIKIDO an actual physical fight where someone is aggressively trying to do physical harm to you.

​@ninjamaster7724 aikido would not defend you in this situation. You would defend yourself. Same for any system/theory/weapon.

Precisamente el vibrar del bokken no lo hacen los brazos,sino que es la expresión del centro,el centro y la espada conectada al centro hace que vibre al final. Como explica Sensei Lewis no tiene nada que ver con el trabajo de shinken, que es diferente...

Exacto!

Thanks for your honest opinion.

Thank you 🙏

Thank you, I hope you found the class useful 🙏

That bounce is obviously a trained technique. This is not the same as bouncing at the end of a swing due to the lack of control. I believe they resemble to absorbtion of vibration going through the bokketo when hitting a hard object, but I dont practice Iwama Style so I cant be sure.

Yes this is Nemoto Sensei - check out the full video as he makes a strong demo prior to Saito Sensei.

Thank you 🙏

Thanks for the love 🙏
