Very good Aikido! Brings back fond memories of training with Sensei Tony Orlando in Indian Trail NC. I made it to Second Dan under his training. Aikido was a great springboard for my next adventure in Combat Hapkido!
@@jdpearce9506 thank you so much JD, nice to hear from you and your experience in training. 🙏🏽😃
Que lindooooooo! ❤
Amazing 😍
Amazing !
good stuff
Man i want to study about this blade and making the sword. So that i can make a iaito shop one day in Malaysia....
in our school, i.e. muso shinden eishin ryu hayashizaki ha, we also do not pay attention to this additional move called SHIBORI, it results from the old tradition of using various long and heavier blades and, above all, no one strived for an aesthetic ideal, only to eliminate the enemy instantly without harming their own health. and one's own sword, many traditional schools that exist to this day, as well as ours, commonly use this additional movement as something quite natural, even then you can learn about the tradition and real pedigree and old methodology of a given school, but remember that iaido (iai jutsu) is not supposed to be subtle, a beautiful art like ballet, only to get rid of the threat quickly and steadily
Very good points! Unfortunately modern iaido has become too stylized and detached from the reality that you just described. Thank you for your comment! 🙏🏽
Vamos treinar!!! BANZAI!!
Boraaa 😁
Are these steel blades or zinc-aluminum training blades?
These are the aluminium alloy blades, not sharp.
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing Sensei 😊
I want to join what the name of the dojo and where is it in London
There are two places you can go, check the websites www.aikidogyodokan.com and www.aikidooflondon.com
is the sword supposed to be rebound at the end of the cuts? I've never seen iaido practitioners intentionally bounce their swords in that way
That’s a great question. Multiple factors come into play for the rebounding. It can happen when someone trains with a heavy and long blade (like mine) and also when extra power is being generated, so to stop it without the rebound would take a lot of stress to the joints (wrists and potentially elbows). It’s hardly done anymore, as modern Iaido has become very standardized and the pursuit of an aesthetic ideal takes the precedent over developing the body. In our lineage, we train with shorter swords, longer swords, heavier blades, etc etc, which is wisdom who came down from our sensei’s teacher - a direct student of the founder of Muso Shinden ryu . You can see this rebound action being done by TK Chiba, Junichi Haga and even Nakayama Hakudo (albeit it less emphasized).
Chopped it up!
awesome!!!
🙏🏽❤️
Greetings! I'm an aikido practitioner from Brazil, and I do like your videos. Thank you!
Fico contente que goste dos vídeos. Obrigado pelo apoio! 🙏🏽
The music!
Me encantó ver un poquito del proceso de creación del iaito, aún que me causa mucha curiosidad saber cómo realizan el hamon en un iaito👍
love those blue Hakama, looks like denim
🙏🙏🙏
That hand twist is soo painful it makes you fall every time kees down on the ground
🙏🙏
Great techniques. Thanks for sharing Sensei 😊
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙏🏽
I enjoy watching your Aikido very much.

Nice ukemi. Hello to Alex
He did well ☺️.
looks like slow sparing but cool regardless
Yes, building skills that would allow to take it up to a sparring practice! Thank you for your comment 🙏🏽
Why even bother to apply atemi before the kotegaeshi? Doesn't tenkan version preclude the need for atemi?
Hi there! As you can see, I only did the atemi in the first two executions, just to emphasize the body positioning and possible opening for strikes. The third time I performed the technique without atemi. Thank you for your question 🙏🏾
I cannot hope for you to understand the depth of my appreciation for your videos. I began training myself for power and speed at 12, based on methods used during the pre-Meiji era. I have read all of the classics of Japanese martial tradition, with Musashi & the Tao at the center. I studied as a student of Yamada-Shihan in NYC. He encouraged us to study related atts, both martial & non-martial. He was & is a close friend lf Mitsuzaka-Sensei, the 8th dan iaido chief instructor of the Tokyo Police Department. I was fortunate to be invited to participate in a several weeks long iaido seminar. A major focus was the attention to the most minutes details of the move from zazen, the quick cut, the ritual cleansing & return to scabbard, and finally sitting again in meditation has had 😊across my life and all of my art. So you know that I know what I am looking at. Thank you. Your art is impeccable, and watching brings an inner calm. Please keep producing this type of clear precise technique videos. Sincerely Dan Goodman (Matt’s dad)
Gosh Dan, what a present to receive your message! As well as Matt’s. How fortune you were to train at NYA under Yamada sensei, you surely met a very important person in my life there: Donovan Waite sensei. Did you also get to meet Mitsuzuka sensei? I really appreciate your words. I strive to make my videos better so that I can at least inspire people to pursue their own path in martial arts. They are also a great way for my to self study. If you or Matt are on Instagram, please check my videos on @ivanmelobudo . My best wishes 🙏🏽
@@IvanMeloBudo Donovan came after me. My iaido training was under Mitsuzika sensei when he was in nyc for a few weeks. Met Chiba-sensei, Kamai sensei & several others. My personal path has been to study everything that I can. My journey is ultimately to find & defeat my enemy within. Helluva a fight but I have him finally in my sight. It’sall me Matt’s dad. Piggybacking. But these days mostly me. The search for the enemy within is the ultimate battle in a martial artist’s life. It has been a priceless journey. Thankf for your kind comments.
Indeed the enemy within is our biggest and longest battle. How great you actually met Mitsuzuka sensei. My teacher Ismail Hasan was Chiba sensei’s uchi deshi and also learned from Mitsuzuka sensei. Very happy to share the path with you Dan 🙏🏽
@@IvanMeloBudo Likewise. Much respect..
I have studied this and repeatedly practice these transitions. It is very satisfying to see them from above, where they exhibit a complete language of motion and transitional possibilities. -Matt’s dad Many arts, aini jitsu principles
Wow
The blade work with the music is so calming.
good stuff , I'm always getting told off for me toes ,some days are better than others , it's a working progress
