+Joshua Hoaglund Nice Dude!

[@TheKraftykid]

Thanks for this! :) I think there are quite a lot of typos in here from no.10 onward. It should be: "Gyaku Yokomen Ushiro Tsuki" "Katate Gedan Gaeshi" "Katate Toma Uchi" "Katate Hachi no Ji Gaeshi" "Hasso Gaeshi Uchi" ... "Hidari Nagare Gaeshi Tsuki" "Migi Nagare Gaeshi Tsuki".

[@Nightbow9]

The last one is "Migi Nigare Gaeshi Tsuki", isn't it?

[@TheKraftykid]

@@Nightbow9 you're right. It was hard to hear him over the dub lol. Thanks

[@jefftaylor4545]

Thank you SO very much for the Japanese!

Man this brings me back. These moves are so fun to learn and satisfying to perform. They also work really well. Bedrock stuff. I'd like to thank the man who taught me some of what he learned from Saito Sensei, but I wouldn't want to bring any evil his way.

[@TheSaneHatter]

I've just been directed here by my aikido school: sensei wants us to learn all this before resuming training in the 31-move kata.

[@ebor8402]

Why doesnt your sensei teach you it?

[@almagalicia3288]

when watched,the movements applied here seem a lot easier than when you try to put them into practice.....even though, awesome skills from sensei saito,wonderful video for learning jô Skills. thanks a lot for posting it! i have just acquired my jô, so i can practice on my own with this guidance.

[@johncook3496]

This is much like the kata I was taught by Sensei Segano (Sp?) in Sydney in the early seventies - I haven't been able to remember it all for ages - great to get this reminder... He's no longer with us - Greetings to his spirit from his littlest student...

[@Tailor-xb2hh]

thank you sr joshua hoaglund

[@TheUnclefester13]

Held the stick so delicately. Yet he swung with purpose and clarity. Would have love to be able to train with such a master.

[@SarciB85]

i've watched this several times now because my grading is coming up soon and i need to know it... well some of it but won't hurt to learn as much as i can :-)

[@rockstarplayer4gamer547]

Morgan train with this guy ....Morgan was here

[@ngomyle]

Is this practical for self defense against long weapons?

[@lancejackson9108]

Consider moving your questions away from this 'self defence' angle. Aikido is not really interested in self defence. There is nothing in the Hombu Dojo nor in the IAF materials which support it as a combat system. If you're interested in learning to defend yourself in a real attack, join the army. ANZAC day in Australia is coming up, you may wish to see how soldiers often end up. Aikido has much more to offer than defence against street thugs.

[@joseev4645]

Jo suburi practique is destinated for kumi jo and jo kata learning. Aiki jo and aiki ken are not jojutsu or kenjutsu but they preserve, codify and help to train moves for taijutsu. Aikido weapons give you a bit of skill with jo and bokken but no so deep as jojutsu and kenjutsu schools.

[@MaDmanex100]

Walking sticks, Jo and more is useful as a self defense tool. However akido is the way of peace so its teaches you about the philosophy of aikido. Aikido teaches you that you should learn from different schools as no style can know it all. Look around youtube and you will find some good techniques and ideas on how to defend yourself for sure. That is why took up the JO. Good luck!

[@karateranger9002]

excellent video . bad aideo because ,why is the narrator repeating everything in japanese is he high on weed and forgot to translate in english ?

[@seikibrian8641]

mike turley Aikido is a Japanese martial art, and so the various techniques have Japanese names. Learning the Japanese names means that one can go to any dojo anywhere in the world and speak a common language. After only a brief time, one would know that hasso-no-kamae is a posture with the jo (or sword) held at the side of the head, tsuki is a thrust, barai is a sweep, ushiro means to the rear, etc.
