You were absolutely right to tell that Man what you did Uncle Sayf. Most people have no idea what real violence might look or feel like. Most people have never really been hurt before either, which is good. I especially appreciated your advice to him on Aikido, which was very accurate. Combat Aikido is very useful for a Bouncer, or a Policeman. I guess I was privileged and didn't know it. Guess I'm just now understanding the true quality of the trainning I received. Seems like there are too many Aikido Schools that don't teach the Martial Aspect properly. Perhaps the Japanese don't want too many Westerners to know what they know. I can only guess that that's still a thing. Because so many people really don't seem to understand what Aikido really is. Maybe I'm spilling the beans, but I hate ignorance, so here I go again. Like I've mentioned previously, true Aikido is about taking away knives, and clubs, and guns while being attacked by multiple assailants wielding them. It's about avoiding punches by slipping them, quickly getting inside, and getting the attacker in a lock or hold to stop him cold. It's about escaping grabs, takedowns, wresting holds, and choke holds, so you don't get kidnapped, raped, or like you said....gutted by one of the other attackers. Most of the techniques are aimed at pinning an attacker on the ground like a Policeman would for an arrest while being able to make a quick escape yourself. If that preferred outcome is not possible....you quickly throw him onto his head or neck so you can quickly deal with the other armed attackers or better yet.....get away. Aikido class doesn't really emphasize disabling strikes,..... at first. Probably because in Samurai Culture, by the time a Warrior would learn Aikido, he would have already learned Jujitsu Close Combat, or Karate, or Combat Judo as a Child or Teen, (I'm seeing now that was indeed my progression too). Aikido (really Daito Ryu) would be an Advanced School or a Finishing School at he end of his Weapons Trainning. It would be the best and quickest way to disarm an opponent without bloodshed. A sophisticated Style/Philosophy that teaches avoidance of brutality if at all possible. In the truly advanced levels, it is understood that in order to disarm a determined attacker, or break his hold, or disable an opponent and take him to the ground, you will, "distract him" with a well timed strike before you can put him in a lock, followed by either a controlled throw if he's lucky, or a joint break if he's not. People don't seem to understand that true combat happens very fast, and there's no time to wrestle around for very long. Spending too much time in any engagement will get you KILLED. All of those, "submission locks", are only, "locks ", if you're both playing nice. And those well timed, "distractions", are all of the sneakiest and nastiest finger jabs to eyes and pressure points, and edge of hands to necks, nuts and nerves, and low kicks to leg joints from Jujitsu and Karate. And some of that activity is AFTER you've stepped around to his back. For such a, "Peaceful Art", it can be absolutely vicious. Very effective for the Street or even a Battlefield in it's TRUE FORM. I can hardly believe that this is still such a mystery to so many people. Just goes to show you how ignorant and arrogant Westerners can be. So no, most people know nothing of real combat, only sport combat, but the Samurai sure as hell knew the difference. IT WAS DIRTY! So if one truly understands real combat, one would not EVER want to be in a REAL VIOLENT ENCOUNTER, and definitely not with a TRAINNED OPPONENT.....ever.....unless there was truly something wrong with them. Martial Arts Trainning should be part of any Well Rounded Spiritual Practice in my very humble opinion. It should keep you in good Physical and Mental Health. It should keep you ready to defend yourself, your Family, or an Innocent RIGHTEOUSLY, at any given moment. But it should never be about trying to prove you're the Baddest Mutha on the Block in my very humble opinion. Only a FOOL would do that. Great video.
The best content. Thank you for this. As for MMA, BJ Pen (at his prime when he was an UFC champion) was KO by a regular Joe. It was caught in the camera. Another one is MMA champions Falcao and another fighter got beaten up by regular kids. People are idiots. they believe the circus is true. By the way, I am legit BJJ BB , Aikido BB, and Judo BB with security backgrounds . What brothers in the videos were saying is truth 100%. Subscribed and enjoying your content
Hi Safy Carmen, You are correct about the Aikido. In the UK a lot of bouncers (trained in Aikido) from the 70s - 90s use to break and control a lot of trouble makers.
You guys he's absolutely right. I use aikido to attack my opponent's back and side in muay thai and bjj class. The three attacks I mostly use are called usiro ate, wakigatame and oshi taoshi However I do sometimes attack the front with somen-ate. Edit: I'm also a tomiki practioner who competed at the world championships.
Ppl HAVE to understand the sword was implied in a lot of these Aikido forms. Karate, Wing Chun, and even Tai Chi have a lot of forms ppl dont realize are actually grappling techniques and not blocking/striking techniques. Great and insightful video as always coach.
@@TheUmmahFightCamp alhamdulillah Akhi yes you did mention it but I just wanted to mention the circular attacks because the west is linear in their approach when it comes to the arts. I salute you Akh and May Allahu reward you for sharing your knowledge of the Art of War, Martial Art
Very well spoken with strong and valid points relative to Aikido. My first use of Aikido took place nearly thirty years ago when I deflected a close quarter sucker punch by using a simple block followed by an immediate pivot and quickly entering into a reverse armlock which allowed for me to escort an individual out of his cell all the while maintaining absolute control. My muscle memory allowed for the technique to happen so quickly with the smoothness that I completely remember the movement to this very day. Aikido is very useful. Triangular and V stepping practice with the mental understanding of the movement is very useful for a person that engages in Aikido.
Hi Mr. Sayf, I saw your video where you mentioned the 48 laws of power. Would you share the practical lessons you've learned to navigate the material world and do well? I don't want to sound greedy, I'm just trying to better my conditions. Thank you Sir.
If you don't think Aikido has function in self defense, it is not the art, but you. LOL! Any art that practices evasion will have some function in self defense. Now, if you are talking about Japanese JJ, ok. If it is that BJJ, the gig is up buddy. You are still hanging on to a myth. But ok.
Aikido is one of the best kept secrets if you appreciate martial arts.
So true.

You really know your stuff, I've forgotten all those terms.
Well said! Aikido is great and works so well with a blade and stick in hand.
People have laughed and mocked Steven Seagal. But…his aikido works.
Ppl HAVE to understand the sword was implied in a lot of these Aikido forms. Karate, Wing Chun, and even Tai Chi have a lot of forms ppl dont realize are actually grappling techniques and not blocking/striking techniques. Great and insightful video as always coach.
Aikido foot work or understanding how to use your stances. What makes Aikido effective is that it utilizes circular and spiral motion offensively
@shaolinmonkey1112: I said that already lol. "stepping". I think most people understand that better.

Akido is good for control managrment
True that.
Wrist fighting is one of the most fundamental aspects of martial arts in my opinion.

Aikido isn't good for self defense. I practiced aikido when I was younger. Now I practice jujitsu. It's alot better.
If you don't think Aikido has function in self defense, it is not the art, but you. LOL! Any art that practices evasion will have some function in self defense. Now, if you are talking about Japanese JJ, ok. If it is that BJJ, the gig is up buddy. You are still hanging on to a myth. But ok.
