Thank you for the videos and the great work you all are doing in these trying times. I am looking forward to joining you guys -- and the world Aikido, and martial arts in general! -- after the pandemic is over.
Just my two cents, but less is best. As Yoshinkan aikido stylist and U.S. Army Colonel, Dane Harden once pointed out, you get a big guy or someone with strong hands like a contractor, electrician, day laborer, etc. so it's best to grab one or two fingers at a time.
Hello, Thanks for watching. The topic of henka waza is quite broad. In terms of Henka waza, what are you looking for? Do you have a specific attack or technique in mind? We'd love to do something, we just need to know what you would like us to focus on.
@@AikidoCenterLA hmm you're right.. im not sure how you're going to work on that in 2 minutes. But i was thinking about something along the line of what one could do when one fails to perform an ikkyo over variation of resistance
I can tell you from experience that a finger lock, or any technique like it, is ineffective against someone who has poor hygiene (greasy skin) or is hysterical with fear/drugs. The latter of which feel NO PAIN until the next day. Those individuals require a carotid choke or a good, hard throw to the ground or door jamb. Those are both risky tactics, and can land you in jail.
These things don't work. Judo and BJJ has shown numerous times that people are willing to break their fingers in sparring and continue let alone a deranged attacker who may be drunk.
Thank you for watching. If you watched the video I do make that assertion and that is why you need to transition after administering a finger lock. I appreciate you taking the time to comment
I'd agree. Fingerlocks aren't a '100%' technique. Very few things are especially against people who may be on drugs. But they are still useful. I'd say the demonstrator was very honest about the fact that knowing a few fingerlocks won't make you a superman. It might help in some situations though. Just my take away from the demo. May be useful, but don't bet the farm on them (which I think is pretty much what the demonstrator said).
It’s true this is kata (form). It’s in a class to train. Fighting is chaotic (street fight conflict or other more non competitive context.) In dojo (ofc) people are clear and consistent and in a practice context. In a bar or any place people (sadly) can have higher pain threshold or be delusional/psychotic because of stimulants (amphetamine). I hope we can be in a society which is not like that and we never come to this point and train with aiki and piece ❤ best to always use psychological support and bouncers/security and de escalate because we are not caveman ;) and the we martial artist are not professionals of conflict solution and have an academic background for it. (Law and Justice/Criminology or police training.)
Thank you. The simplicity and directness of the technique, combined with the honesty and clarity of your teaching, are profound.
You're very welcome!
Thank you Sensei! Your 2 min techniques have had positive and long lasting effects on my practice. Thank you so much! Aloha! 🙏🏽
Thank you. I appreciate the kind words
Excellent stuff!
I just saw an ad on how to become a Yubiwaza master in an old issue of Tales of Suspense from 1964. They weren't lying!!!
Well. I didn't want to say that's where I learned it! I am a fan of the occult.
thank you so much for the lesson stay safe and take care
I have done this before. I works on surprising Uke. I have used to get cuffs on a suspect.
Awesome techniques and explanation.
Thanks for watching, Les!

I don't remember anyone being willing to break their fingers in BJJ sparring when I trained. That's a strange statement to make
They'd be inexplicably stupid if they did. Benny made it up.
