Thank you very much for this video Shihan. I found it during some online study of Kata Ni ju ni (22) from the dynamic sphere by Oscar Ratti. I have been tasked by my Soke to bring this kata back into our system, Saigo-ha diechi-ryu Aikijujitsu from the late Gunshi John Williams. I am a Nidan within this system, I began the study of Aikido in 2006. Wing Chun before that, Shotokan before that and Savate before that starting in 1984. The journey is lifelong.
Even the greatest samurai could only disarm an expert opponent about 3 out of 10 times. But training for it is better than not training for it. I believe the jo is the most elegant weapon.
Stefan: This is an exceptional demo. Can you explain why you always position yourself on the side of uke where his arm is higher, and then work jo on the arm which is lower?
Wheelinthesky300, that's an interesting question. In my experience, it is usually necessary to work on the inner hand, gripping the jo close to uke's center. That's where uke has the most control of the jo. Working on the other hand would be more difficult, since uke in that case would actually keep control of the jo. It is not easy to get control of a jo that uke grabs with both hands. They key is the grip by uke's center, because that's the root of uke's stability.
It ALL looks nice in 'slow motion' but IF that attack had to be for real, i am not sure the Victim EVEN WITH AIKIDO knowledge would be able to react in time...that is my opinion.
Why doing technics against someine that cant attack well ? Uke that come first in your area and strike after you have moved. He want to suicide and he is blinded ?
@lunelie7724, we do it rather slowly here, because otherwise it would be difficult to see what is going on. But the strike is not after my movement. It is simultaneous. If I were any later I would get hit, of course. Compare the timing to a boxer ducking a punch. It's the same in every martial art.
Uke dont have the right timing. One step forward and After his step, he start to move the stick, he start the attack After his step. Tori move during the step but before the stick start to move. If you dont see that, you can slow the video. Right attack : stick start to attack, then uke start his step.
@@lunelie7724, you are mistaken. I had another look at the video and I found that uke's timing of step and strike is quite correct. He prepares the strike while advancing and strikes at the end of the step. The strike and the step end at the same time. No point in striking before you can reach the opponent. The same timing is found in every martial art. You move forward and complete the strike when you reach, which is at the same time as you finish your step. Starting with the step is also necessary for getting full body power in the strike. If you start the strike before moving forward, it is just the arms moving.
i am not laughing i am serious about the future of aikido i see and know the difference of demonstration for public and a human conditioned you are not you been up in the north far to long pretending shihan a joke

I have met many special forces personnel who kick doors down and kill many in combat. They love Aikido b/c it takes only a second to move an immovable object, kill and move on. David. Try Aikido out. These are concepts. Of course, its not MMA or UFC but then again, life is not based on UFC and MMA rules. Life is based on no rules. Aikido is not based on rules either as you progress through the training. My sensei have said... "you learn all of it and then forget them after your black belt." You are not a slave to the martial arts but you enslave the martial arts to you. Get it?
Stefan, your instruction is well respected and appreciated with me! I humbly accept your teachings into mine! Than you very much!
This never gets old. Thanks for uploading

@JohnBullard, I'm not sure about your statistics, but I do agree that it's better to train than not :)
@@StefanStenudd I think that was a claim made by Bokkuden, O-samurai, undefeated in 19 duels.
@@JohnBullard I don't doubt it. Unarmed against someone armed is not easy, and against someone very skilled it is close to impossible.
Very nice demonstration. I must practice this more.
Thanks for sharing ! Greetings from Lima Peru!
This is very cool. My shodan testing is coming up and this IS extremely helpful. Thank you Sensei.
quite a nice collection of interesting moves.
Thank you, Kei. I must confess having to think hard to remember some of them :)
Very nice demonstration.
Very nice!! Thanks for sharing.

That answer is even more interesting than my question.

先生日本に来て教えて！
Kira Meira, thank you for your invitation. But surely you have many teachers in Japan who are more than sufficient.
Have a good day.

You've already said that in a comment on another one of my videos. Laughing much?
