Koichi Tohei sparring:
th-cam.com/video/HA1E1e36atA/w-d-xo.html
Great stuff! I think Aikido is excellent when viewed in context. I think if the basics of combat are learned first, and then Aikido is studied as an advanced form to enhance what skills are already there, then it makes a lot of sense.
I did Aikido after already having skills in other arts and I was the exception in the school. The people that though you could just learn Aikido without other knowledge were just fooling themselves.
Aikido is a Dlc haha
@@tomo2807 that's actually a good analogy for it. Aikido is indeed an expansion of Jujutsu.
@@tomo2807 I don,t know if this is true, but i once heard statement that Ueshiba considered Aikido to be an art for people who already trained jiu jitsu, judo etc. It helps to bring your skills on another level, if you have no skill than your chance of actually using anything from Aikido are very small. If you can,t defeat your opponent with throws, slams etc. that require grabbing a relatively huge parts of opponent body, how can you expect to win with manipulating wrists of someone who actively wants to hurt you?
@@Endru85x I heard that it was a pre requisite before that you have to have a yudansha first from other martial arts before you train Aikido...
Great video, I appreciate you covering Aikido. Many discredit it outright but it has value. Thank you!
Because when you compare it to other martial arts it’s useless. That’s why there’s no Aikido MMA champion.
@@goodtimes2hellyeah169 or any video of Aikido being used against a resisting opponent.
@@goodtimes2hellyeah169 : As if MMA was any parameter to judge what works or not.Comparing aikido to other martial arts is like expect a soccer team to win agains the NBA playing with BASKETBALL rules. Aikido is a DEFENSIVE martial art and can be very effective in some situations, specially for disarming. Watch the video on Rokas channel in which there is a SELF-DEFENSE competition and the guy who knows aikido outperforms the other BJJ or MMA practitioners. There's no better martial art, but the best practitioners and specific purposes for each art.
@@gengotaku Rokas is however, now, trained in BJJ and MMA, to a degree, and the majority of techniques he applied had nothing to do with Aikido. He's also younger, taller and, nowadays, better built that some of the other guys on the show.
It's a fact that there's no actual competition in Aikido and anyone that supposedly making it work is either doing it circumstantially, against drunks or untrained and unsuspecting opponents, or modifying it enough where some might not call it Aikido any more.
@@sinister3vil think Tomiki Aikido will disagree with you on aikido competitions. They don't get much respect in the Aikido community because it's different than mainstream, but they do have competitions to pressure test performing their techniques. As far as aikido working against drunks, and other untrained people etc...That's the point of it. It's not an art designed for mutual combat like MMA where both parties agree to spar. It's designed for self defense situations where only one party is willing to fight, that's the attacker. Watch Jesse Enkamp's latest video where he goes against an aikido master. That master has the best explanation for why aikido is not seen in MMA. He says a line that is so true if you really think about it. He said aikido isn't a fighting art, it's a survival art. Survival as it I am attacked, I dispatch the attacker as quickly as possible and get away. Some arts lend themselves well to MMA style sparring, and those arts should be trained if MMA style sparring is the goal. An art like aikido can be sprinkled in when the opportunity lends itself, especially during the grappling phase, but it's not an art designed for the mutual give and take of MMA style sparring.
Redirection of force is such a beautiful (and in some cases, underrated) concept and technique. Thanks as always for your videos!
Thank you for this video, Chadi. I only went one free day of Aikido class only few years ago
In my point of view, as a Silat practitioner who trained in Silat Sport since the 90s, the more time we're in the MA the less movement and less energy we use because we have experience and different mindset. i am 43 right now, I am not the same person when I learned TKD at 12 and Silat at 14 and other style of Silat at 19, facing a mugger at 23, catching a thief at 25 and fighting for one reason and another during all those time. Today, if I have to fight again, for self defense or whatever reason, I am confident enough to just stand casually, in relax mode, while being aware of my surrounding and using the simplest technique to takedown opponent/attacker...I think that is the similar thing what those MA grandmasters are doing, some of them formularize it into a new a form of MA that being misunderstood such as Aikido, it is not for beginner. Only those who reach certain level of confidence, awareness, experience and calmness can do as what being demonstrated. No matter what MA you're practicing now, 30-50 years later you will become like Morihei Ueshiba, move like Morihei Ueshiba.
As the saying goes: “the longer you train, the shorter the fight”
@@Chadi It goes into everything actually, for example experienced chef don't need to measure ingredients anymore, they now to put things just right... 😄
Very true... one starts using the "small circle" (jujitsu, etc.) + ki energy (kundalini, starts at the coccyx... or actually at the FEET on ground: actio-reactio).
I've used all these in self-defense!!
Great to see Gozo Shioda - who was/is highly regarded by many in Japan - in action. Enjoyed watching the video clips and listening to the presentation - thank you!
If I'm not mistaken aikido was indended for people that are already proficient at grappling. It was more of a complimentary art.
I heard similar things about what is the purpose of aikido - to bring your already existing skill to another level, with more subtle techniques. It is like teaching "dirty tricks" to 2 people - one who already done martial arts and other did not train anything. Imagine you want to teach someone using finger strike to eyes when he can,t even hit opponent body with his fist.
Yeah, pretty much. I was told that Ueshiba didn't teach anyone that wasn't already a black belt, which to me makes sense.
Folks that already has combat knowledge (especially those along the entire Judo/Jujutsu lineage) can better utilise it than those that has no knowledge at all.
Yes, that makes sense. It can benefit a grappler who already has good basics, but if you start out in it without any existing skills, it is probably very difficult to apply realistically.
Aikidi is more than a set of techniques (jutsu) it is a way (do), meaning a mean for spiritual enlightenment an art of life
Same as judo, as do wing Chun is definitely complementary to people with talent in that particular field, no amount of training will make you as good as Bruce Lee or Ipman. Stop wasting your time try karate or boxing instead or just use a gun.
Redirecting the force is an essential part in Aikido, Morihiro Saito (shown in this video) is one of the few who had the martial knowledge of Aikido, especially the old techniques, where breaking the balance(like judo)and using Atemi followed by the techniques are essential to subdue an opponent
Great video as always Chadi, hope we can chat the soonest
Thanks for sharing! Talk soon
Wrong! First 10th Dan was Koichi Tohei, not Saito!
@@EduardoRodriguez-ks4em Who cares. Anything above 6th dan is honorary anyway.
@@scottzappa9314 Tell that to Moriteru Ueshiba. Big Bucks count, Scotty Boy
@@EduardoRodriguez-ks4em Same to you boy. What I said is still correct, understand? Don't lecture me, LOL.
Dear Mr. Chadi,
Many, many thanks for showing the way how old masters and practitioners of Aikido were doing their best , with an ease and dynamics of a childś game.
I also practiced it and only after years have found out the essence inredirecting or simply first accepting the oponentś way and then changing it to ou "fashion and purposes whithout physically beating him to blood.
May God give them peace and if still living, good health and faithful followers.
Paul, 68, instructor of Karate.
i hope you do more aikido videos that go into depth on the techniques and how they are meant to work.
Thank you for explaining this, I used to think akido was somewhat staged.
I shouldn't have taken that perspective because I studied Okinawan karate for 37 years.
But explaining the principle of not force against force, but manipulation, and finding open gaps.
It looks like I'm still learning 😅😂
Thank you Sensei

Force redirection isn't fake, it's called Judo.
Oh aikido? Yeah that's fake
You were right, it only works when your opponent plays along...
@@pinkydavis6113 The art is also in control the opponent. That is you grap, hold and force your opponent into the the positions where these moves can be applied.
This is one of the most interesting and amusing martial arts videos I've seen. It must have been quite a wake-up call for Kennedy's bodyguard and probably for Kennedy himself. Thanks for sharing.
You think?
@@indefenceofthetraditionalma without a doubt 😝
JFK was no MA, his spinal column was damaged, but he prob. got the gist of it!
Only people who have no clue about true martial arts disregard aikido. Great episode, I had no idea about this RKJ bodyguard challenge. You learn something every day.
😂 a fresh blackbelt in judo would demolish the greatest aikido practitioner to ever live
Thanks Chadi! Love your videos! 👍
Great info, and that's a very good point at the end that looks can be deceiving. Randori sessions in my BJJ and Judo classes have made that painfully clear, where I have been ragdolled by guys that look out of shape and old.
In BJJ, they should actually use the term, Ne-Waza to refer to their traditional live training starting from the kneeling position and going to submission, where you can stand only if you are attempting to pass the guard. Randori is sparring focusing on the throws and takedowns.
@perfectsplit5515 Fair point. I never gave them grief, because we start standing, then stay on the ground after the takedown
Shioda sensei was legit and his style of aikido is the closest to daito ryu aikijujutsu that takeda sensei taught. My jujutsu instructor spoke very highly of him and the knowledge he had. It's good to see this footage as most is of ueshiba and look what happened to the style he created it's completely useless while shioda kept it for self defence
It isn’t useless for the purpose Ueshiba created it for. He was traumatized by the real and extreme violence he was a witness to and participant in. The real fault isn’t not in the system nor the philosophy but the type of people generally attracted to it. Most people don’t go into Aikido to learn how to fight. The techniques work when applied as intended, they are just not useful for combative sports applications, except for the footwork
@@davefletch3063 if its not for combat it's useless pure and simple regardless of why it was created. In aikido there's the flowery crap which his family are teaching them their is the hard aikido which shioda taught alongside others and it works very well on the street. Footwork is used in all Japanese arts not just aikido. Ueshiba aikidoka tend to use alot of circular movements which are not the best as you give up far too much space
@StanlyStud,😂😂stop talking bullshit, his style isnt shite it's proper. The tokyo police force use it, his isn't flowery at all. His demo in this film is just simple body mechanics nothing more. Size has nothing to do with strength. Look at the gracies they did the exact same thing putting people twice their size out cold. Are you saying bjj is complete shite when it itself stems from judo which you prob think is shite too. I don't practice aikido at all, I know a few practioners who i rolled with. As a Martial artist it's good to see other arts even if they seem unable to work, saying an art is shite makes you seem like an uneducated tool when it comes to martial arts. If you know anything about, it then share if not don't criticise an art, mma is shite i don't speak negative of it as it has its flaws as all arts do but it's how you use the knowledge that counts
@StanlyStud I think you're right.
There is no proof that any of these old masters, even Ueshiba and Shioda, could fight their way out of a paper bag.
@@niledunn4641 >>if its not for combat it's useless pure and simple regardless of why it was created.
BJJ practicioner here. I wish my school would teach these principles more often. I was able to be around long enough to adopt them, but some of the new and intermediate guys don't know them and keep using brute strength in the same opposite direction.
About the arm grabs - many aikido attacks come directly from weapon fight. If someone has a knife then controlling the weapon is very important, so the chance of getting stabbed is lower. So this wrist grabs make more sense then.
Yes, that would seem to make sense - like that iconic moment when Leon Kennedy grabs Jack Krauser’s wrist in their knife fight to defend against the stab, just before they “face off”. In the 2005 RE4.
Interesting observation, which most people miss out. When it comes to weapon attack an aikido practitioner is better prepared than any MMA or BJJ person. Just watch the video self-defense competition on Martial Arts Journey and see who had the best results against knife attack: AIKIDO!!
Always good videos. Many thanks sir
It’s always interesting to watch people break down techniques I always thought were natural reactions. Someone grabs your wrist of course you twist it to escape. Understanding the principles likely enhances further application though
"Eu NEGO mostrar a vsa majestade imperial que o aikido seja uma FARSA!!"
Essa frase foi antes da apresentação de artes marciais ao imperador , shioda quando ouviu isso ,enraizou no seu ser que o aikido não era brincadeira e dai que
teve UKE com braço fraturado e próprio meste shioda levando uma surra do morihei
One of my favorite techniques to teach beginners is tenshinage. It is not very practical in a real encounter unless under the right circumstances. But the footwork, balance breaking, and control of your partner's shoulder show up in parts of many other techniques so it is a good "building block" technique.
Shioda stated that one wouldn't appreciate Aikido until one has used the skills in a life or death duel. Shioda fought 3 gang members. The suwari waza you see is misdirection. We can only resist in one direction at a time. Pressure in any other directions renders the force null.
@StanlyStud Piss off troll
@StanlyStud you are wrong. He and his friend really got rid of thugs coming to their refuge by night to take their revenge by killing. It was terrible for the 2 men. the fight was lasting a long time before the thugs gave up.
If only Kennedy would have had better bodyguards.
L'Aikido Yoshinkan de Gozo Shioda est pour moi le meilleur moyen de defence , avec des techniques de judo-jiujitsu, boxe anglaise et pieds - poings . C''est mon humble avis , j'ai pratique l'aiki-jutsu et aikikido il y a plus de 50 ans et j'ai reussi a vaincre un bagareur de rue j'etais fier de moi .Merci pour cette magnifique video .✌🧠☸⚕☯️💜♾🙏
This doesn't look like redirection at all, just good leverage points.
Alot of these exercises allow you to get used to angling their joints to control them through tje shoulders. Indeed the idea is to be able to move their centre via a grab. This is why I think Aikido is so much related to weapon work, so people can't control you through a grab. Many strikes involve a grab and a strike in real fights.
Let’s try this today . Hakamas laid out all over the place as bodyguard walks away proudly. Don’t kid yourselves
I did Aikido for 17 years, but haven't done it in 11 years. I really miss the art. It's one of my favorite arts next to Kyusho Jitsu. I see aikido in almost every other art I do.
i JUST WILL BELIEVE IN AIKIDO WHEN TEH PRACTIONER DO SOMETHNG LIKE THIS WITH ME.
I see it now as a way for an old fighter to in a way treat PTSD and find inner harmony.
Good point regarding school yard bullies. This is a good point you made. We are used to seeing highly trained fighters doing all sorts of attacks and anything outside of that is seen as unrealistic. That isn’t always the case.
Chadi, thank you. Enjoying the hard work finding these old films, and appreciate you posting them... Want to remind folks that before Judo and Aikido, Traditional Jiu Jitsu is the art of the Japanese... Kempo or Chinese Hand was new knowledge that augmented the existing art... Jiu Jitsu is the art of the Samurai and family and Klan art... There were many Ryu, and not permitted to teach to outsiders let alone foreigners... Modern Judo missed many pages of the real thing, e.g., strikes of various kinds by hands, feet, and nerve strikes, for instance... Some wazas that most likely will be considered barbaric by modern standards
The very essence of Uekemi lends itself to the illusion of Aikido being nothing more than being a puppet show (via Uchi-Waza upon Uke).
Remember that Uekemi is designed to prevent student injury and prolong student participation, as most Dojos need financial support to continue. Healthy students (Kun), lead to further finances which keep Dojos, Temples and Dojangs alive.
The illusion of ineffectiveness is created more by the professionalism of Uekemi application, which leads many people to believe wrongly that the Uchi-Waza is just an illusion of presentation (both randori or kumite) and all for show. Great video in that Chadi's speculation upon an actual historical event (via demonstration) actually proved that Waza is much more than simply the precursor to a predefined student reaction that leads directly to Dojo/Dojang/Temple financing.
Great video with much more implicative material that really introduces the student to the true intricacies of real martial arts training. Great video. Such a benefit to the entire martial arts community.
There was another incident where Kochi Tohei, top student of Moriho Ueshiba took ages to subdue an overweight, out of condition US reporter, he was eventually subdued but only with the use of a strangle. Not sure strangles are part of Aikido.
Chokes certainly are a part of aikido, including several that were taken from, and have since been banned within, judo.
Are you talking about this video? th-cam.com/video/YNa7tYoH7Ys/w-d-xo.html
He absolutely dominated him, it made me believe that old school aikido was legit, thank you.
I was taught to go against the thumb not all four fingers. Bend at the elbow only. Point your fingers upwards as you do this. The grip will be broken, from there different techniques can be used. Exactly how he was shown doing it here.
What is the aikido techinique aganst MMA quick kicks in the legs?
An Aikidoka would benefit from learning those kicks and joining arts together! Aikido has a lot to offer, it alone is not meant to deal with very fast kicks to the legs!
Grip on the wrist is so common just like you said. Gets used for wrestling attacks, gets used while gripping and punching etc. Very good to practice kokyu ho as part of your training
Thanks for sharing this Aikido video, I want to suggest you make a video of the Jyoshinmon Shorin Ryu style, this style has many judo and jujutsu techniques, the creator of the style was Hoshu Ikeda,
I taught my roommate 4 year old son to throw me using these techniques. I tell him to move his hands to say “HI”. As to wave your hand. He trip out on how he was able to move me. Just love it. I’m 6’4 200 lbs. These are the things most do not understand about AIKI.
合気道は力をかけるタイミングと人体の構造が鍵
Grab and punch is common so there must be a immediate reaction after the grab, if the grab isn't shed. Aikido teaches both ways, both require a relaxed mind.
Plus whoever has his/her hands inside and the elbows close to the body has more leverage
I am Japanese and do not have the skills of Morihei Ueshiba, but I like the quote he left. That quote is, "My best skill is making friends with people who come to kill me."
JAPAN is TOP! 😊
It's been a while but if I'm not mistaken they may have been on my old VCR Gracie In Action Vids.... Not sure, may be misremembering due to at that time we all trained with so many folk and picked up anything that worked in a real situation. In fact, For a few years I didn't even wanna talk about fighting, or any MMA etc etc. Blah blah blah. 😂 I got so burnt from teaching, I had to step away. Everyone seemed to wanna tell me every fight they were in since birth.... 😂 Thanks for the vid. "Turning toward the opening" I believe we called it. But once you learn it... You don't forget it. Take care Chadi and may God keep you safe, warm and fed in Jesus Name Amen.
Thank you for posting! I support RFK Jr. as next President of The United States (there is his father RFK Sr.) It looks like that aikido master taught RFK Sr's body guard (ex-'F.B.I" agent ) a lesson (ha ha).Time to add Judo/aikido, wrestling to the repertoire". "F.B.I." agents are now trained in "krav maga" and "jiu jitsu" (so this most likely wouldn't happen today).
Forearm control might be necessary to stop someone from using or drawing weapons, so the technique could be used to free one's limb to use or draw a weapon?
Very good
6:14 this is right. The techniques of Aikido are just jujitsu done in an idealistic way. But you have misunderstood the attack of kokyudosa or kokyuho. This is a real attack meant to prevent someone from drawing a blade. When replied to correctly, there is no ‘stripping’ of the grip. Like zero. The goal is to flow power back up the attacker’s arms until his elbows rise. Then execute a short throw to one of the cardinal directions. Practical? Not so much other than as a pedagogical exercise. But a darn good one. It demonstrates a principal of inside position. This is well known in Judo too, but not often singled out as a discreet principle of movement.
très bien comme toujours. Bonjour de France
Aikido is to learn basic sense of martial arts. But rather difficult to use in practical combat if not to mix with other methode.
is very eficient until you got punch in the face😁
I have never discounted aikido, because the times I have used it my way in the street, it was very effective.
I think chin na and shuai jiao technics more realistic
Aikido has a different context than those two, you can't really compare them.
合気即神
I agree with your closing words. I don't think someone who hasn't experienced violence would understand the aikido philosophy. You have to put yourself out there in order to truely understand the dangers and risks of violence. There is never a guarantee and all things can go wrong with terrible consequences. No wonder Morihei Ueshiba chose to pursue peace and harmony after world war 2. Ironically, aikidokas never train live.
I have a question. I have a hard time understanding where aikido starts and jujutsu ends. How exactly does harmony change the techniques and how does aikido express harmony?
Essence of Aiki is to do as little harm as possible, whilst still being fully ready to and capable of killing, which for me is proper self defence. Fighting is childish nonsense. I learnt how to keep myself safe on the streets before I started Aikido. On the street, first, fast and very vicious will always do it. Don’t need any training in anything. Aiki offers more human options for people like myself forced early into violence by circumstance and natural animal tendency. Difference between JJ and Aiki is in base level intention - where you are as a developing human person. Hope that helps.
Kokyu ho is not a self defence technique. It is a, very imprtant, excercice to train one of the basic principles. It is in the application of what you learn there that aikido can be so effective.
I’m aware, it means “breathing method” 呼吸法 but the principle in it can be used for martial purposes
The advent of the firearm made this all obsolete - from a distance .
I think I liked what Tyson said about these kinds of demonstrations. Something along the lines of ‘yeah, but who’s going to grab you like that’. Would like to have seen them try to wrestle with the bodyguard
I grab my sister like that.
Tyson was very much interested in Aikido! He had an open mind as to add to his boxing!
@@hobowithawaterpistol9070 he may or may not have (I would need a citation) but, whether interested in aikido or not, he still said what he said about those types of demonstrations
Excellent video im glad you added that it took time and training in other arts to understand Aikido. These arts are excellent it is just that over time they may get watered down by those who learn and don't uphold or teach it properly. Also in the West, we don't realize how indoctrinated we are with how these athletes look and that most guys in MMA, etc are on STEROIDS AND GROWTH HORMONES
And then Mike Tyson said : "but why would I hold him like that ??"
Айкидо не боевое искусство это всего лишь раздел в любом стиле. Любой айкидока улетит от второго разряда юношеского по боксу
That's not Kokyu Ho. Single frame it at 1:28. Their palms touch and they are pushing each other. At 1:41 he adds a nice little Yonkajo / Yonkyo for maximal performative effect.
万回以上の訓練の賜物。
Even back then they had excellent choreography. IRL, who's gonna grab your wrist like that? Any aikido masters ever win an mma match?
What happens if the holder redirects the redirected force, or what jujitsu teaches to counter angular force movements. I think it would come out different.
But that's not how hostile people react, a real attacker does not just hold on why you make your moves... They adjust and seek weaknesses in your defense. Even inexperienced attackers will resolve most aikido moves.
I believe aikido has some serious power when utilized correctly. But its applicability is much much smaller than practitioners want to admit. Not unlike most martial arts really.
Best used against unsuspecting opponents who lack awareness of their situation.
You should do a reaction/comment on the self defense championship in rokas channel
I suppose that in nogi BJJ you learn very fast how weak one on one grips are. Unless that arm is also a support point.
I really can't see what's so special about that technique.. Basic stuff.
I call Aikido …” give us your dinner money “ style ..like kids do at school……it relies on someone grabbing your lapel and threatening a punch or they have hold of your wrists to start …..once anchored on the aikido guy can easily wrist lock you or throw ……trouble is a canny street fighter or trained fighter doesn’t do this ….it’s punch first and no one can catch a punch when the opponent doesn’t know where it’s aimed at …..the best martial art appears to be KUDO to me …I’ve done karate , western boxing , kick boxing and judo ( judo for 28 yrs now) and as a MMA kudo seems to be the zenith of development…
That’s not why they do all the wrist grabs in Aikido! Go take an actual class for several months before you make assumptions!
There is a problem, they will be punching,kicking and slamming, not grabbing wrists😅
It’s just an exercise! If someone is doing all that you said to someone pointing a gun at them, then too would lose! It’s all in context! Don’t read so much into based on your lack of knowledge!
@hobowithawaterpistol9070 good you mention the gun.
Your answer validates my point, a pointing gun is a real threat, a real situation, same as as people moving and striking, resisting.
Grabbing wrists is not a real attack, not a real situation. I know what a demonstration is, and it's cool, takes some skill, and I respect it. I used to practiced Aikido too and I don't regret it, it made a better person. But elevating those demonstrations to self defense material is just dishonest and moronic.
Just really blows me away with Aikido is. HOW WE POSITION OUR HANDS WHEN GRABED. FLEX OPEN THE HAND. NOT A CLOSED FIST. TO CHANGE THE INERGY. AND TAKES UKE CENTER. TO TURN UKE GRIP AGAINST HIM. REVERSE HIS ENERGY AND CONTROL HIS CENTER AND KI. JUST SO SIMPLE. BUT ESOTERIC. THE MAGIC OF AIKI.

Yoda has nothing on IRL O Sensei.
If the bodyguard would have taken that guy's head the war probably would have started again. Aikido is good only for exhibitions. I have never seen a video of an Aikido guy actually beating anyone out of his friends
Come on that's Copium, I don't want to offend anyone but what did that demonstration show? Kennedy did find it suspicious and let his bodyguard challenge the Master, so you go from guys "attacking" their master and flying around, and we know they willfully fly around, to "okay try to hold me down". All that shows is that Aikido is not really fight functionable.
To answer your question, I ask you this; how many of you skilled fighters are criminals or attackers? I’m willing to bet the percentage is less than 1%. Why, because most skilled fighters aren’t out causing trouble, they’re training and working!
Now, how many amateur or just plain unskilled fighters are there on the streets and bars but still can be very dangerous? I would say about 70% of the criminal base!
Aikido has nothing to prove to BJJ or MMA!
The body guard was twice his size too😳
But yet only a demo .
Idk if its redirection of force. Perhaps force management.
Aikido is just Judo but without the parts that work
There is value in Aikido, but the opening sequences (1:10-1:20) are completely staged and fake with compliant opponents. Like most standard Aikido demos - those are useless fake techniques.
Number of Kennedy"s killed on aikido masters watch: 0
Sato Ichi was there too.
ya, i a fight i would like to be on my knee...
武産合気
Aikido works great when your opponent follows your directions. It always fails in unpredictable, dynamic exchanges.
WIth all respect to aikido and all that kind of beautiful demonstrations, but a professional freestyle wrestler or muay thai master will destroy them and dont say that aikido has counter technique against low-kicks
MISLEADING TITLE!!! PLEASE CHADI!!! You don't need this...that was not a real challenge from the Bodyguard. He was invited to push. Please, you are missing EVERYTHING when you call it a challenge!
Steven Segal is an Akido master!!!
He thinks he is
It’s obviously a work guy. They’re huge on respect even if they pay for it. I get how the technique works. But you don’t go to Japan in that time and get out on them publicly. Lol come on fella.
But if the bodyguard had immediately loaded a hook into the Japanese's head, the master would have been defeated.
It’s just an exercise! You watch too many movies!
@@hobowithawaterpistol9070 👍
Ничего фенноминального в этом нет, сила в согнутых руках, а не выпрямленных. Показуха и нечего более.
Aikido 🤣
Just let go.
Skip aikido and just do traditional jujitsu. I did traditional jujitsu for 20 years. Aikido is an off shoot of jujitsu and a more humane art
You have it backwards! The Aikido master was holding the body guard down. And he could and did. And yet you are explaining how someone could escape from a hold down. Are you on drugs?
It takes an exceptionally terrible fighter to lose to an aikido practitioner. What a terrible idea. Not only was he trained in any martial art extreme. I guess he's never been in a street fight. I know guys who've never been trained in the martial art that just know how to handle themselves that would have won that easily
They wasn’t a fight! It was a demonstration of leverage and body manipulation! Be a little more open minded and here’s a thought, actually go and take an Aikido class for some months before making statements with a complete lack of knowledge!
