Aikido Seigo Yamaguchi - Seminar Berlin

Another video showing Seigo Yamaguchi which I found on an old VHS tape. Please excuse the fact that no better quality is available. I am publishing this in the hope that it might be still useful for the Aikido community. It seems that this video was recorded during an Aikido seminar with Seigo Yamaguchi in Berlin, Germany, probably one of the seminars with Yamaguchi Sensei organized by Gerhard Walter (see www.aikido-zen.de/), who has been one of the key players in the development of aikido in Berlin since the 70's. This recording comes without sound.

Thank you for sharing this. It is an amazing video on many levels. There is a beautifully touching moment at the very end where you see Tissier Sensei bow slightly to acknowledge Yamaguchi Sensei as he steps off the mat. You can truly feel the respect and affection that Tissier Sensei had for his teacher.

Hmm ... could be Tissier. Or rather Gerd Walter who hosted the seminar in Berlin.

@@aikido-internalartsI am quite sure, the first uke appearing in this video is Gerhard Walter. Following this, the man at the end is not. Thanks a lot for posting ! Where did you get these early videos from ?

[@MikkoKurkela-tc8fi]

What year was this?

[@TheBUTOKUKAI]

Great video, annoying music

[@aikido-internalarts]

Thanks for watching and commenting! Because of the bad quality the original sound is not usable. Feel free to turn off the sound ;)
