Aikido Seminar: Authentic Form, Timeless Flow (Part Two)

In Part Two of this seminar, 5th degree black belt, David Goldberg Sensei of Aikido of San Diego applies "the Body Cast" exercise from Part One into classical Aikido technique. This facilitates "looseness" in the Aikido-ka's body movements and inhibit the rigidity that manifests too often in Aikido practice. Rigidity inhibits the ability to spontaneously respond to physical threats.
