Back in the mid 80s I had the chance...and pleasure...of studying in his Dojo. And even had a couple of chances to work with him personally. I have to smile at remembering him asking me to hit him will all I had. I was flying around the room, from one wall to the other. He was very real and that is how I think of him today.
These goofy internet kids today have no idea how real Seagal's method is. Very different from 95 percent of Aikido dojos out there.
Steven Seagal is no joke
Unless one trains with someone like Segal one will never know the lessons. I get pissy when a youtuber goes on and on talking instead showing the technique. My pissyness stems from my training as a speaker and presenter. I was taught to get into the content as quickly as possible so as to not lose the audience.
After you present the content then you present the fluff talk.
But, in the end I respect all arts. People work hard at their art. Most arts/schools do not just give rank, one must earn it.
Stevens my hero. Nothing more to say.
You're a fortunate man.
Steven segal is the reason why I discovered akido and inspired me to learn it.
At the Santa Barbara seminar I brought my 4 yr old son back to meet him. His assistant turned me away and said mr Seagall is resting. He saw us and waved us back and my son demonstrated that he knew all the names of the techniques and Sensei got a huge smile on his face and complimented how smart he was. It was really nice of him.
It makes u wonder if people are telling the truth about sensei seagal that's a great story........
Humility elevated Sensei to Rinpoche, not adept at techniques or mastery of astheics😊❤.
I worked with Steve Seagal a few times as his fight double and I will say he really knows his shit when it comes to Aikido.
Course you did mate. 🙄
Of course Segal is crazy as a loon right now, but he did make some great movies in the 80s / 90s. Got me interested in Aikido.
he is so crazy that he supports russian invasion of Ukraine
I’d love to train with you guys one day. Like your attitude to training.
Uncle Steven! 🤣🤣🤣
You guys are great! I'm old now (80), but I was in marshal arts for years. You bring back pleasant memories!
Respect, Grandmaster. Thank you for paving way for latter adepts❤🙏✌️💯
One reason why Shihan Seagal's Aikido works, is because, it is not pure Aikido. I have seen him use the Straight Blast (Chain Punching) from Wing Chun Kung Fu. Watch "Under Seige 2: Dark Territory", and "Marked for Death".
No steven seagal practice aikijujutsu in this film ok
His films were a great demonstration of basic principles and a reminder that all the techniques originated on the battlefield first. One "aims" to suppress without harm but crowds are different.
Love the channel! Never really had very much respect for Aikido, before watching your videos. You make it work for the street, impressive!!! Keep the videos coming 🥋🥋🥋
Aikido always had a combat striking/grappling combatives continum: It was called Aiki Jitsu. Moreshiba's Aikido and Kano's Judo were offspring arts from the parent art of Aiki Jitsu.
I was also inspired by Segal's technical grappling methods in the early 90s. To me, Bruce Lee's striking and kicking was the inspiration for the combat sport of PKA style American and 🌎 Worldwide kickboxing in the 70s and 80s, and Steven Segal's grappling techniques displayed in films 🎥 may have contributed to the striking/grappling combat sport of mma during the 90s.
Ah someone who knows his history! And Hapkido is aikijutsu, just Korean name
If you like the history of it , Stanley Pranins aikido prewar masters is super interesting
Sensei Seagal practice Aikido and Aikijujutsu. Steven simply the best!!!!
Glad to see this homage to "Uncle Steven", and I fully agree with it. My only gripe about his films is that he gives the mistaken impression that what he practices in his movies is the "traditional" form of Aikido. This impression is only enhanced by the first few minutes of his first movie where he includes archival footage of the founder himself (Uyeshiba S.) practicing in his dojo. First thing I realized when I saw the first action scenes in the movie was that Seagal was NOT practicing that "gentle" "cooperative" style of Aikido, but something more akin to the old, harder martial art of Aiki-JiuJitsu .. (or today we might call it "Aikidoflow" .. 😉) As a side note, I would suggest that practitioners of other martial arts who poo poo Aikido for real fight situations take a look at the Aikidoflow videos, and see if that new style might change their minds as to its effectiveness.
Ditto kiddo. Well spoken. Respect.❤
6:10 thank you guys for breaking down this move, I'm totally obsessed and want to learn it at all costs, how to put an opponent to the ground with a simple movement.
That's called Iriminage, which means "entering throw". It is performed in many form, this one they're showing is the most direct and ancient(not sure about it). Last year I started practicing aikido and I learned another version of said technique.
The problem with things like wristlocks is that they're hard to execute when an attacker is throwing with aggression and he pulls his arm back after throwing. What is often needed when doing wristlocks or arm bars is a softening blow to briefly distract them or stun them while you lock in the move, like a quick slap or punch.
In chess it would be called an intermezzo move.
Study, train, practice,execute. Be humble and redirect... young Padawan .😊😅😂❤
Terrific advice. Thanks a bunch, @aaronbarlow4376!
Say what you will about SS but the fact that Japanese masters (and their opinion is the only one that counts) allowed him (the only westerner at the time) to run a dojo teaching of all things Aikido in their own backyard and trained with him is a true testament to his highly legit skill level and unmatched dedication to this art. If he was good enough to earn their respect he's legit enough to earn mine, period!!!🙂
Shiho nage, ude garame nage and kote gaeshi have pretty much always worked for me. Ikkajo and nikkajo also have worked in some situations. Irimi nage is also pretty reliable. Only ever had a kokyu nage work maybe once or twice. I'm talking about practical applications, worked law enforcement for nearly 35 years. I think the most dangerous ones to apply would be shiho nage and ude garame nage. You can really mess up someone with those throws, particularly if it's a hard surface. In Yoshinkan we have a technique called irimi tsuki, basically a palm heel to the chin and drive through. It works, but it's dangerous to use because the person on the receiving end basically has the back of their head slammed into the ground. That can have pretty bad consequences.
Mr. Segal,is the final word in Aikido, when you mention it to people his is the name that comes to mind....
Well…, aside from O’sensai of course. 😊
I LOVE this channel. Thank you
This channel and the Hein's Approach to Aikido channel are wonderful examples of how not to get stuck in the traditionalist and unthinking way of 'learning' Aikido without understanding how to make use of it.
Hein's approach of working at reverse engineering through stress testing things to come to the comclusion that Aikido is not an empty hand system at all but a blade art gives us one line.
This channel gives us another line from stress testing and adapting and stripping down the traditional techniques to find the underlying mechanics that can be used empty hand in modern day (British) city life gives us the other. And they are clearly enjoying what they do.
It's worth comparing these two practical lines with other material out there on CZcams such as Rokas and his Martial Arts Journey. There's a lot to learn from all these things about how humans think and how humans can get themselves muddled by tradition and lose the focus on practicality.
And yeah, even though uncle Steven is not a shining example of humanity he did make some impactful and inspiring movies back in the day.
Important to point out that Seagal always blended Jujutsu, sword principles, hand deflections, and Karate techniques together with his Aikido.
AMEN 🙏🙌❤
This is much better than I ever saw in a dojo
Stevens Beat move is how he keeps that Hairline and Hair Coloring... he Hides that hair piece like a Ninja in the dark .
You hide you're vag like one.
Love your stuff, Gents! Cheers
Thanks for demonstrating! The moves are really simple and work! Chapeau bas!
I just had a look at your online course. I didn’t see any ukemi, fall instruction. Did I miss that? Pretty important stuff.
Awesome video thanks a lot for it, I'll try to gradually incorporate them. My father grew up with Seagal movies just like you too. He also loves aikido and suggested i try it which i thank him for. It shows you are genuine in how Seagal has helped you pick up Aikido. I watched some of his early movies too and could see why everyone loves them, they are just badass. Thanks uncle Seagal!
I remember Terry o Neill had a program on utv in the 80's on martial arts and each week focused on a different martial art. The Aikido one was my awakening lol
Awesome !
I love Stephen too !
Love it just love it you guys are the best thanks for putting out this video 😇
Just like little kids. Sirs love it
I like that his moves and actions seem realistic. In any other film the people get hit with weapons, hands, feet but they just bounce back. When Seagal hits someone they stay down, like real life.
I agree, watching his movies drove me to studying Aikido.
I trained at a martial arts association where one of the head instructors had been a tunnel rat in Vietnam. He was barely five foot tall, but he did 1000 over head cuts with a weighted boken everyday before class. When he grabbed you, you were grabbed, when he hit you you went down, he was the most realistic practitioner of the art I have ever met. He taught me to strangle a person with their t-shirt. I would have stayed in the class if he had not been re- deployed.
Was Sifu former Khmer Rouge?
@@barrybaker709 No a marine who had seen combat and had taught hand to hand in the corps thirty years ago, if you walk in my dojo, I will gladly give you a lesson on his behalf.
Was watching a video earlier tonight in which the CZcamsr was comparing traditional Aikido to "real world" Aikido, such as Aikidoflow. He made the analogy of the differences between the two styles as of chess to football. If that's the case, then Seagal is the quarterback of Aikido. 😀
Say what you like about Seagal but attaining 7th Dan just punctuates at least 7 times where he's contributed to the progression of the art itself.
Side Note: Resisting Shihonage caused me to suffer a postirior shoulder dislocation. Aikido, applied with speed and intensity, can have devestating results.
Sensei has been Rinpoche, through Dalai Lana for several years now. I remember when Sensei was 3rd Dan .
Great video
Excellent video gentlemen. God bless.
Steven will always be kool.
is his clothesline a mix of tenshinage (haha tenshinhage-did you see what a did there) and iriminage turned sideways?.. way cool and awesome video. Love all your guys videos. I'm crackin' up over here. He might be my Uncle too, for real.
Azu killed me with the Uncle Ben comparison! LOL
Great video. I, like you guys, love uncle Steven. 😁. All of his movies are lessons too learn. You 2 slow the moves down so we can see them better. Thanks for doing that. God bless, and be safe out there.
top stuff man
Seagal was the Don in the 90's. Brought awareness to this art. And I agree,,,he might be a bellend at the moment but he was an absolute ledge back in the day.
Nice!
Je suis allé à l'aïkido grâce à Steven Seagal et je ne le regrette pas du tout. Thank u d'avoir de la reconnaissance pour ce que Steven a fait pour l'expansion de l'aïkido.
Nice info
I used aikido for self-defense and also used it when I did CQB😎
#6 Grilling a burger with marshmallow: absolutely lethal.
And thank you!
Get him on the show.or maybe even talk with him.id like to see his views
Course like all fighting forms and and fighting systems it comes down to the man and how skillful and confident he is within himself the technique is only as good as the man who uses it you only get one life and one shot at it the enemy's intent is to kill you at any cost yours should be to eliminate them at any cost first fight on in of course from all positions all sides having all of your senses sharp and being ready at all times in this game
Great channel & good quality content. Glad to see the practical proven techniques of Aikido shown here! 👍
Steven changed a lot of people lives from the movie Above the Law
Have been a Seagal fan from day one. Like and sub!
Remember If It Wasn't For Steven Seagal There Would Not Be Aikidoflow I Love Sensei Seagal I've Learned A lot From Him And I've Learned Alot From U As Well Jason And Azu I Thank u I've been into self defense for 56 Years Now Started When I was 12 years old and Still learning everyday god bless u both people need help to protect themselves from harm.....
Nice
Respect
I love Aikido:Heart of Peace .
Along it ,Wing chun Kung Fu,Shaolin,Ninjitsu and Vovinam Viet Vo Dao,Boxing and Military Close Combat .

Lest we forget Sifus Scott Adkins,Jeff Speakman,Sammo Hung...
Love ❤️ the uncle Steven 🤣
i love uncle steven too :D
Wish you could get him on channel in one format or another.
GREAT. U TUBE. VIDEO ..LOTS TO ABSORB
Yea dmx also thanks estiven segall.
If the table is turned, and it's my wrist being twisted, how best to get out of it?
Drinking game: drink every time they say Steven Seagal.
wouldn’t get very drunk. They called him uncle stephen.
@@timmyshore3755, count the Steve Seagals. Half a bottle easy. 😆
He has indeed fallen out of favour with multiple celebs describing terrible or bullying behaviour from him, but back in his heyday he was a legit star, and many of the people who now 'hate' him loved his movies in the 80s and 90s.
I see him do what I call Wrist Out Turn quite frequently, Hapkido basic move#5 we call Four Corners Throw
Greetings from Poland. Well, it's 7.48 sec. Is it really possible to grab an opponent's arm or hand ? Perhaps it is but I've never seen it in real life. I guess this might be the most difficul thing to do. I know that people training aikido practise that on & on but how to grab the fast fist and stop it to do a technique ? Usually , in such cases, the opponent pulls his hand back immediately or tries to punch with aother hand. Just, such a thought, ... but I might be wrong. Regards.
In John wick there's a pretty good executed kotegaeshi
Agreed.....
I disagree. Movie kotegaeshi like in John Wick is very open with lots of space to make it look dramatic which is good on film. Effective kotegaeshi requires keeping your hands closer to your centre and moving you hips to generate the power. With a very cooperative uke you can do the big dramatic stuff for show, but you'll find yourself in trouble if you do it that way with a genuine attacker.
Also on kenobi
@@shia_labeouf good point it does look more dramatic. I guess I meant well executed for a film 😆
What rank in aikido are those 3 super cool teachers?
Mr o my guy
Every gen xer in the world agrees with you on this one!
Uncle Ben 😂😂
I remember seven segal in the siege. Thought it was good at the time. However claude van dam also good say hes a fraud. So who do you believe.
I tended to follow bruce lee way of the dragon etc.
As for me i joined the royal navy, trained with royal marines undertook dive training.
Much later took up martial arts, ninjutsu, jujitsu and nimpobugei and had an introducction to bjj. They were all good really.
Why can't I Google how to do the five finger deathpunch?
You don't want uncle Steven around any hot nieces.
எனக்கு அய்கிடோ மிகவும் பிடிக்கும்.
உண்மையில் நான் ஒரு ஜூடோ காரன்.
Same here, seen “above the law” and next day we were in aikido class…we all owe mr. Seagal a debt for sure…
1st move get a pizza 2nd move get beer 3rd move take advantage of girls that’s Steven segal
How many is it again? @12:12
Uncle Ben to rice?😆🤣🤣😂😂
All his movies up until under seige 2 were really great. And nowadays they are aweful and he has gained alot of weight. But yes he did make aikido more popular and turned me onto it too!
I like them both (im doing Judo now) many similarities. And some things about Aikido that i think do think are lacking. And yes, some of the demonstrations cause the audience to say "thats rediculous, nobody grabs you like that" but those are demonstrations!
And man, the whole ufc and mma thing has just exploded since its introduction and is the chocolate chip everyone wants. Which cause all these comparisons like Aikido vs Boxing, This vs that, Batman vs Superman, and its not about that.
Can you tell me the difference between Judo and Akido ?
Live sparring
one comes from japan the judo and karate comes from china
Yep, all his early movies, he's practically showing you how to use a guys movement to put them down. You can put them down forever if you hang on to the hold or lock too!
Nice..but would have liked to see more technique breakdown and less talking about how good SS looked in the movie. For example in technique to you never really brokedown how the technique was executed as you did in technique one
What Bruce Lee did for ( kung fu and Karate), That's what Steven Segal did for Aikido. What he teach is combat aikido, which make you see the art for what it really is That's the reason why i love AIKI- JUJITSU THE SHIT IS VICIOUS. When you reach the black belt level in AIKI JUJITSU, you are on the level of a Ninja.
Aikido has its roots in AIKI JUJITSU and TAI CHI, ( don't believe me, check it out ) !!!
Didn't even show the armbar elbow break over the shoulder. That would have been fun.
Watch out guys! Don't fall beside that yoga-mat, you might land on soft grass! 🤣
that’s not a yoga mat
Just remember simple geometry everything is at a 45 degree angle.
what if we failed geometry in school ?
You forgot 'if the other guy cooperates'.
Hi I've seen alot of you video I haven't seen 1 where you are attacked by 3 people from behind. 1 Gun 2 knives or vice-versa
love all his moves
He said it himself IN THE MOVIES it’s a puppet!
What about Seagal and Judo Gene?
Both great martial artists. If you're trying to refer to the fake "chokeout", it never happened. Eyewitnesses testimony already debunked it.
@@AztecUnshavenThere’s a nice video on CZcams on that. 😉
@@tiffanybatcheller-harris522 Yes, there are several video interviews with eyewitness accounts that confirm the chokeout never happened.
Mr O is that u
Irimi nage
I bet one of the people who liked this video is Steven Seagal LOL.
Above the Law. I thought he was doing magic. Lol😂.
guys where is Andre ?
The reason it generally looks ridiculous on video is because the purpose of Aikido is misunderstood. It's an art of war. It's meant as a last resort - you're unarmed against an armed opponent that means to end you and you can't escape, now what? If the fight is prolonged, you're not gonna walk away unscathed - thus why the strategy is NOT to start a boxing match.
Using the momentum of their attack against them, you go for a single fight stopping move. That move usually being something that outside of a fight-for-your-life, would be considered illegal. That means breaking joints, eye-gouge, groin stomp, literally whatever is going to END the THREAT as FAST as POSSIBLE.
Wonder why no one can accurately demonstrate how Aikido moves would work IRL? There's your clue.
So they demonstrate some of the concepts of using the attacker's momentum against them, without permanently disfiguring their training partner...
Is Aikido outdated? Yes. It's purely an art form now. We have better self-defense tools in modern times, to counter ordinary and deadly force.
