Hook punch defense - Aikido that WORKS!

[@innerfire81]

Great video! I really like that you emphasize adaptability when the execution doesn't go as originally intended. Didn't even know that Aikido had hip throws, either. I love your practical take on Aikido.

Great instruction as usual, thanks Lenny. I really take that on board about continuing after a mistake as I tend to stop sometimes, which is basically nuts - in a real life situation that would obviously not be too clever...keep em coming!

[@shihonage]

Thank you Lenny :) Best Aikido on KZbin. P.S. I continue to find parallels between your style and the style of my new instructor (after 14 years of classic Aikido). Probably has something to do with him having attended Steven Seagal seminars, and having experience with Judo. Leg sweeps and standing pins are among those similarities, as well as a strong focus on honest, strong attacks.

[@benmacdhui]

As always an informative, straight forward common-sense demonstration and explanation of the technique. Why I enjoy your videos so much. Maybe next time can we see how using hand deflections as well. Thank you Sly Sensei, keep them coming!

[@paultaylor107]

lol my background was Judo then Aikido. I used to get in trouble all the time from my Aikido sensi for sweeping legs lol. Good work! many thumbs up!!

[@spoonman73]

Whatever works is what should be used. Good for you for adapting to the situation.

[@semafodje782]

I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL, NEVER STOP POSTING, I LOVE AIKIDO!!!!!!!!!!!

[@haffoc]

this is a technique that really works on the street. the throw is what we in judo call koshi guruma. I used it once against a guy on the street who came at me with a haymaker. I fell with him, but controlled the fall so that I landed hard on top of him. it knocked the wind out of him and he was done for the day.

[@razorgarcia298]

Absolutely 🤗 Correct 👍 Koshi Garuma AKA Kubi Nage ! Well done ✅

[@santokukan]

Love the way you explain the technique. Outstanding.

[@markmccartney5800]

Great video. I like your videos more and more as you seem to step back to your roots more often now. Your practicality is great. At the end of my classes my sensei always asks if I have questions and I request to try some of the techniques you bring up and it is always refreshing to try out real style stuff and work outside of the box. Thanks

[@thesandman5541]

This this really good stuff, and very well explained. Will be trying this in the dojo with the boys this weekend. Many thanks again.

[@clauderanupas8621]

Lenny, your outstanding way of explaining the aikido movements are so well detailed that they remain in ones mind to never forget ...Congratulations!!!

[@a3spirit]

Could you show this with uke having the other hand up as guard during hook punch. I want to see if u could wrap around his neck with his guard hand in the way, or would it slip off. I wasn't sure if he kept down so he could wrap around your back for ukemi purpose. Thanks for these vids!

[@dannydortch5196]

[@Derrick1951]

Lenny great video in the same vain upon uke throwing the hook punch nage entering in and throwing a strong blind straight punch to uke face with full force with strong irimi really works well. Ps . I love tour teaching style and spirit. I'm an ex NYPD Officer who has used Aikido on patrol on a couple of occasions and atemi served me well.

[@Leffe49]

Great video with excellent explanation on "how and what if" Thumb up.

[@rickiecowens2410]

Great video Mr. Sly. The technique was great, but my favorite part of the lesson was the keep going tip. I have preached that to anybody that would listen. If you stop mid technique for any reason, then start over, that builds very bad habits for real combat. I really enjoy what you do sir. Been waiting a long time on You Tube.

[@markjudge4255]

The leg sweep is very similar to Judo Tai-Otoshi. Very good.

hello sensei, because I train aikikai but since the past got lots of interest of sensei seagal's style specially since I have started to see your clips, I would be very glad if you can make a clip or write an article regarding the whole kind of attacks and their name specially those which you use and aikikai doesn't use, for example : yubi dori etc. thanks in advance

[@marcusma4044]

Thank you, Sensei Penny. Excellent video clip via the hook punch. As mentioned the way you explAin the applications s in your clipS. Hope to meet you in the future.

[@dennisparrjr2509]

good stuff brother. keep up the hard work with all your videos! I take alot of your concepts into my own Aikido studies. I do recognize that sweep type throw which I see as more of a "tripping" movement since your posting your leg out and the opponent falls over it rather then reaping or scooping the leg like is taught in schools of Traditional Jujutsu and Judo ex: (Osoto Gari). I wish all Aikido schools had the same Outlook on physical conflict resolution that Tenshin Dojo does I've attended seminars with Miyako Fugitani (7th Dan) and Kentaro Seagal (4th Dan) teaching and it was always a great experience. I'm part of ASU now but before studied under what was formerly a Dojin Aikikai associated dojo under Sensei Jim Wood of Riverside himself a student under Shihan Ron Grainville whom was a direct student of Suenaka Shihan. ASU is a very different experience and its core curriculum is very traditional only in Yudansha ranks and seminars do they deep dive a bit more in realistic street applications of Aikido something that I do not agree with coming from my first dojo that although is traditional still very much teaches the harder old style taijitsu techniques you never see in ASU until you reach higher ranks. I feel this is a serious mistake and a short coming of the organization so I teach it when given the OK by the head instructor as much as possible. I wish I was in Chicago I'd love to train with you brother.

[@exerhlp]

I like your videos as they show a practical approach of aikido, even though it might seem more aggressive, but that how life is. One question pops out, however: have you ever had a reality check against, say, a boxer, and if so would you care filming such a test - it would be interesting to see how it goes..

[@draconis0469]

exerhlp oh the what if’s are everywhere

[@razorgarcia298]

Lenny ,yes ..look at Koshi Garuma/ Kubinage from Judo . ..This is a perfect set up that will work perfectly in conjunction with the two styles.

[@amoz2000]

Another great video, thank you Sensei Sly. I've been incorporating many of these aikido techniques into the application of my Shotokan katas. Or should I say cross referencing for validation. Though Shotokan is mainly known as a striking discipline the katas show many maneuvers that hint to their creators intent on dealing with grappling type defense and counter. This video points to moves 9-10 from Heian Shodan & your iriminage vid, with hand deflections resembles moves 25-27 from bassai dai. I like the real world presentations you give in your videos. Clear away all the fuss and bullshit people insert into martial arts and hopefully they remember why they walked into the dojo in the first place. To learn & train with experts like yourself for self defense and self preservation. Thanks.

[@Lionheart2323]

iriminage off the hook punch is still my favourite game ender 😊

He thinks he might have trained with you at one point or another.

The sweep I know as tai otoshi (body drop) from judo. Hari goshi is my favorite where your right leg leaves the ground and sweeps.

[@nicquinzon1958]

Thank you Sensei! Very good demo.

[@AikidoWithObata]

Thank you! That's a cool experience. Will practice this and have subscribed

[@NotEvenMexicanBrahh]

First time I bring myself to comment, and first of all thank you very much for sharing with us such the practical, real life application of Aikido. Having said this, I've heard a lot a statement that I don't see as true: "yokomen uchi strikes aren't real life practical" or words to that effect. As I see it, the real life equivalent of a yokomen uchi strike I think it is someone trying to smash a bottle on another's head, be it on a top to bottom swing motion or in the same angle as a yokomen uchi strike. Would this be a fair statement, the way I'm seeing it? Looking forward to learn more 👍🏼😀

[@no-ce]

Si, si me gustó el video y la explicación está muy práctica, en el video: Ultimate Aikido hook punch defense, también se muestra, aquí es mejor la explicación. Thanks for the explanation and thanks for these videos, Hi from Mexico City

[@aungthihaphyo3113]

Lenny. I suggest you to show your footworks too in the upcoming videos, as these techiniques are really difficult to practise.

[@jbicker9330]

Koshi Guruma is a Judo Throw, but is really close to what you are explaining for your hip throw. Which would work better for your demonstration and still allow you to control the arm and then allow you to pin and control using your techniques. Not to mention the foot work for that specific hip throw is much more balanced in this case. Just a thought. The Tai-Otoshi variation you moved into toward the end is really effective. It is what we train here in our home dojo. I love how these two arts are so closely related in many areas. Keep the videos coming... they are always awesome!

[@SLYSCOMBATIVECONCEPTS13]

+J Bicker Will do..... Thank you

[@canadianhotbod1]

It's funny how you mentioned that the two Arts are closely related and that is because originally Aikido, Judo, and Jiu-Jitsu used to be all one art. It was called jiu-jitsu. Then jigro Leno and morishi uashiba ( I know misspelt their names) created Judo and Aikido from jiu jitsu back after 1882.

[@vaughanmacegan4012]

The sweep as you called it, is tai otoshi. One of the staple moves in Judo. An effective maneuver to get the opponent to the ground. Without the sweep it looks like the Judo technique for O-goshi, and a more twisting version looks like Uki-goshi. It is surprising to see a tai otoshi in Aikido!

[@rogerbyrd3524]

Awesome!

[@ademiranda2]

Awesome as always! If you have any doubt as to whether your videos are helping folks, don't. I know is having an impact on my Aikido training. I subscribed to channel. Hey, speaking of hooks, I see a resurgence of interest in boxing. A lot of people do it for fitness because it's a great way to loose weight and get in shape I guess. My question is: how would you deal with this situation with someone trained in boxing? They know how to punch, they keep their distance, they throw a lot of quick jabs. I've seen a lot of comments on KZbin saying a western boxing guy would destroy an Aikido guy. I am not so sure but would like to know your opinion on this.

[@SLYSCOMBATIVECONCEPTS13]

To be brutally honest. Someone that’s trained in boxing would completely destroy an aikido, if that’s all the guy knew and trained in was JUST aikido. Most mainstream aikido people just train aikido and nothing else. Now if the aikido guy has street fighting experience or has trained in let’s say Karate, Tae Kwon do and was pretty successful in those. Then the aikido would probably be able to hold his own so to speak. Although very few aikido people today have a background in other arts.

[@gregorygoss417]

Boxing works in the ring. If they are really keeping their distance and jabbing. Then you do the same and walk away. Most street fights are adrenaline fueled and emotional. Boxing techniques go out the window. Just my two cents.

[@informationretrieval5896]

Any thoughts on why BJJ guys diss Aikido? These techniques seem very useful. I'd imagine that they could incorporate these techniques in order to expand their tools.

[@ronin2167]

It's not the momentum that is needed to perform Aikido. Momentum just makes it worse for the attacker. It's a committed attack. The shifting of body weight is more than enough to perform Aikido. You just never see it in most schools because they either don't know, or don't understand it. There are those that are so aware of body mechanics and sensitive that even the thought of making an attack is communicated to the Aikidoka.

[@raybernard3144]

[@lifeschange6064]

That hook punch is........ uh .....interesting

[@thunderflower7998]

the techniques one sees are like a bridge...connecting one island to another...but in these techniques you DON't see what one does before or after the arrival on the island...and that is WHERE ONE IS INVINCIBLE! or...Every movement you see has a counterpart you don't see....a yang element has its yin waiting....and vice versa....

[@mickymorton7148]

top of the pops brilliant

[@FMVega]

Legit...!!! Thank you Sly Sensei!!!

[@tkdfighter8]

The problem with the techniques you showed is, that they all take much longer than a hook. You might counter a haymaker with that but not a hook. Also if your opponent doesn't drop his guard he can just shove you away.

[@rwongusa]

All fights are situational.

[@tkdfighter8]

Whats the point?

[@danielskipp1]

The important things to mention, that weren't, are, A, you need time to enter n get the throw i.e.this won't work without seeing it early. A late defence can maybe koshinage but he will come to you. B, atemi, a strike to the side or back of his neck is best as you hook his head. C, his nonpunching arm best be deflected as you enter or your entry can be blocked, your head attacked on entry or your body or clothes grabbed and ripped as he is thrown. The level of force needed dictates whether you prevent or cause his head to be spiked into the concrete. A nasty variation is to stamp on a foot as you throw to break his leg. Have fun.

[@sylvainlandreville3425]

Hi Mr. Lenny. I have been following you for a while and can relate a lot with what you show. But one thing... Like you I was told the hakama was to hide the feet. This was told so many times that it became to be believed as truth but I recently came accross an article that debunked this completely. The article is in French with some pictures and drawings and historical references and I will try to send it to you. Basically the only time the hakama had to be worn long was in the presence of say a high ranking person because wearing it long actually impedes movements so making it harder to assassinate the high ranking VIP. Otherwise it was worn inside the boots or somehow tied up to make it easier to move around. Let me try to send this to you...

[@sylvainlandreville3425]

Hi Mr. Lenny. I put the article on your Facebook in a private message.

[@ironysteeth]

Ialways thoughf the throws were extensions of the submissions

[@4grammaton]

What about defending against uppercuts? Hook punches are still pretty wide, open, with the arm extended and liable to be captured. Uppercuts most closely imitate the stable, triangular kokyuu-hou movement/posture, so it seems they would be the most troublesome to deal with. It's basically like someone attacking you with kokyuu-hou, which is one of aikido's own weapons.

[@tiburonsam1]

Lenny, love all your videos and training; you've very impressive. But I've noticed you've been putting out a lot of videos for free on KZbin. I'm currently paying for the online courses. You haven't put anything up since Jan 24 but it seems you're uploading here almost daily. So can you tell me why I should keep paying you when I can just watch your training for free? What's the deal? And if I'm thinking it, how many others are as well? Again you're a really great teacher and I love your stuff. Thank you.

[@SLYSCOMBATIVECONCEPTS13]

tiburonsam1 The video's for online classes are done once a month and the video's that have been uploaded on KZbin have been requested by KZbinrs and people that have privately messaged me. Also I've uploaded a few online class videos to promote the online class training. The new KZbin vids are not on the online class platforms either. I understand your concern but I have to cater to both online class members as well as KZbin people. I hope you can see why I have to do this. Also I've been posting a lot on KZbin lately because I'm trying to build the channel and from my previous experience you don't do that by uploading 1 video a week.

[@tiburonsam1]

I understand. Thank you for the quick response. If I might make a small suggesting, perhaps the content that is in response to people's requests can also go up on the pay site. That way people aren't hopping back and forth between the pay site and KZbin and they feel they are getting the full experience and you'll get more paying customers. Exclusivity sells more than freebies. People take advantage of freebies because no one does more work than necessary or pay for what they can get for free. No one gives away Lamborghini's and from what I've seen, that's what you are for aikido, the Lamborghini of Aikido! It's just my opinion. I think you have a terrific opportunity to transform Aikido, but to do that you'll need more paying viewers. I WANT TO SEE YOU SUCCEED AND EXPAND! Thanks Sensei!

If the purpose of the hakama is to conceal the legwork, it doesn't make sense for the instructor to wear a hakama, because the students can't see the footwork.

[@SLYSCOMBATIVECONCEPTS13]

Great comment and from a technical stand point I agree. But the aikido world loves to complicate things and this is one of them. Just like when I was coming up in the beginning. Whenever someone would make a mistake. Sensei would come over if he noticed. He’d then demonstrate the technique using YOU as the uke. I was always against teaching that way. It does not help the student learn. And of course it’s about feeling the technique. Fuck that, that’s a stupid way to teach others. It’s smarter for the sensei to use the other guy to show the student making the mistake what they’re doing wrong. Aikido loves to play the mystical bullshit. Then they wonder why the art gets bashed.

[@jeremyraven3326]

Aikido is awesome, problem is the training methods are too static. Theres not enough free play like there are with two boxers in a ring. With free play Aikido becomes small circle grappling with 85% of traditional technique ineffective. Short punches and low kicks included in the mix that are still taught in Aikido but are not often mastered by Aikidoists.
