Ikkyo - Aikido like you've never seen BEFORE!

#roguewarriors this video is about kosa dori ikkyo like you've never seen before. For the first time instructing together, Lenny Sly and Bob Kamka share ideas taking ikkyo to a whole another level. Sly an Kamka go back and fourth building from one technique to the next. This is truly a great way to explore where you can develop a lot of different variations of this kosa dori ikkyo application. This video completely show why sly and kamka are #takingaikidoback in a huge way. No one in aikido is brining to you better than them!

I love the way you make Aikido. I want learn protect me too. I love your videos for womens too. You make great Work. Also your comment ist very helpful. It help people who have Not contact With violence. Thank you. You are my inspiration.

[@Ronin-os4pe]

Hey Sensi I really enjoyed this video. You’re bringing back some really good memories. It’s been along time brother.

[@carlreynolds1111]

Cool. Lenny your in union sheet metal. I am in the California local 104 outta San Francisco. 20 years now in that. Keep in the union. Love the videos still. Thanks. Cheers.

[@southcoastaikido3004]

awesome

[@masakatsudojoschoolforaiki1600]

Awesome, thanks for the many options, although I almost feel bad for Rod, I think you you have done an incredible job with his Ukemi, Phenomenal!!!!

[@craigbolton5949]

Rod and Chris must be sore at the end of your videos do they ever get to throw you guys around just asking

[@miket9830]

I have a question, why would anyone come up to you with bodily harm intent grab your wrist ?

[@garyharper4188]

mike T In fact grabbing attacks are very common for women at least.

[@jb6368]

hear ya but true story. Worked doors many moons ago,,tried getting pissed young lad off dancefloor,,he was just pissed and messy,,he grabbed both my wrists and froze ! i literally on dance floor had this dope,,pissed but stern grib on my wrists starring pissed at me,,bloody prick locked on,,i was like rabbit in headlights,,anyhow another doorman grabbed him from behind and broke grip,,as he was been dragged out i got 2 swift kicks to nuts,,point being never say never,,,after now doing ju jutsu and aikido after kick boxing i wouldnt suffer same faith,,shit happens. Went on after 13 yrs on doors into prison service and lost count of times aikido saved me,,esp from excessive force.

[@gingercore69]

Reasons yo can get your wrists grabbed: 1) you are trying to walk away and they decide to stop you 2) you have your hands extended in front of you to show that you are not agresive and they decide to grab the wrist to pull them away or down to strike you 3) they are grapplers, you dont have a gi and you are in a long distance(therefore, they cant get a grip on your elbow/bicep) 4) they are trying to go for a Wristlock or trapping themself 5) you are a child and your mom doesnt want you to crosd the streets

[@mythicrampage9909]

Only takes 5 Lbs pressure to break an elbow . Knees an option possibly overkill.

[@roguewarhead1079]

This is a very awesome and entertaining video 5/5. Thank you sir.

[@masterpugus789]

I loved the illustration of a lot of openings for striking to make the technique work and pin the attacker. Great Job!!! I loved this video. I also loved the two sensei comparing notes on different strikes and pins.

[@legalmechman]

man...I hope you guys buy Rod a boatload of beers...he just keeps getting beat on in these videos! speaks volumes about his skill though...

[@Derrick1951]

Great video..Atemi is a must, Over the years I have blended my Kyokushiin karate punching with the openings that aikido creates and it works. Those punches to the ribs that you demonstrated had the capacity to stop someone in their tracks period. Well done guys.

[@JaguarRonin]

Another productive video!!! Strictly as a curiosity question (or two) Why not Aikijujutsu? Major differences between Tenhsin Aikido and Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu? Respectfully,

[@betrmindz6490]

Awesome as usual. Thanks again

[@mohammedhanif6780]

i love it! but i'd be thrown of the mat if i tried any of this. i practise with sissies.

[@carpediemsan8222]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I appreciate your "no bullshit" approach. I first began my Aikido studies back in '91. I instantly fell in love (yeah, I said it... I fucking fell in love) with the blending of energy that this art teaches us. I am fortunate that I have a Sensei who teaches ,as you do, very practical Aikido technique vs. the bullshit "smoke and mirrors" that can be found in some Aikido dojos. I admire the variations you are sharing... Fucking bad ass! I hope to make it to your school some day. Unfortunately, a regular commute from Arizona would be above my pay grade...lol. For now, I will learn from you via KZbin. Again, thank you for sharing your knowledge. Ki be with you.

[@inyourfaceicity5604]

So the attacker performs this utterly weird reach-across thing where he turns and leaves his left side exposed only to get a grip on your left wrist that he then does nothing in particular with. Sure. Then again, once you get somebody to do something that stupid, you can probably also perform Aikido on them.

[@williambarnes3054]

Thank you for this. My second Sensi always taught that you "take what you get" in a self-defence situation. Also, he did not enjoy hurting people either. Neither do I. He gave me a self defence system, not a fighting system. "The Principles behind Bushido" as he called it were important to him.

[@mikeaddison-saipe5820]

Reminds me of the type of training Gozo Shioda used to do. Very hard but also fulfilling.

Hey sensy can u show a defense on a street combination punches when people swing wild like on the street

[@R.Belle.Official]

yeah thats right, dnt smoke crack, and dont start fights, but defend yourself! thanks for the words and great videos! Not everybody thinks that one day evil come knocking our door. When happened with me, was just like that, crack smokers, addicted people from the street.. If I just knew how to defend myself, but I didnt at the moment, on the other side, the other girl knew jiu-jitsu, but was using it for the wrong purposes... happy Im alive, happier to know martial arts...

[@xenomorph42]

I have a question, do you ever see Rogue Warriors expanding possibly in the future, I mean To different states or even other countries? I just love you guys! I think the world of Aikido really needs to wake the heck up and if people really keep an open mind, they would join you in a heartbeat, I know I would, but I'm in Japan, but I really love how you take Aikido and unleash its true potential, the way it was meant to be.

[@SLYSCOMBATIVECONCEPTS13]

xenomorph42 Yes that's EXACTLY what we want to do. you can still join us even tho your in Japan.

[@SLYSCOMBATIVECONCEPTS13]

That is why we have started the TenShin Aikido Alliance to grow to different locations and affiliate dojo's

[@Leffe49]

That punch to the Ribb side, is in fact a Kyusho strike to Spleen 21 (Sp 21) It will shock them if done straight in......now seeing the rest of the video.

[@edgarrobles6984]

Great video thank you

[@The_Real_Tunder]

I would bet everything that anyone basic boxing technique would 100% beat you in each and every fight. These jobbers are literally using zero resistance

[@josephflynn9792]

A.h.k there are two different distinct levels of martial arts use. One is for use is fast moments with unprepared or in trained people. Aikido and hapkido fall into these categories. The next is for use in protracted combat and against trained fighters these are your boxing and judo arts. They are now near as precise but they are also much simpler. ( less room to go wrong) if you can only do one you should train the second it if you can do both it doesn’t hurt your training too much.

[@BigMoik]

@@josephflynn9792 that is simply incorrect. If you think grappling or striking is simple that means you just have not trained them. Aikido doesnt work, period

[@josephflynn9792]

jon doe I’ve got a green belt in Judo that wouldn’t agree with you. KISS keep it simple stupid. One of the most basic and effective throws I have ever used was a hip toss and Ushiro Goshi both of which have about three steps at most.

[@BigMoik]

@@josephflynn9792 you have a very low belt In a barely effective martial art. As an active competitor in Bjj you have no idea what you are talking about

[@josephflynn9792]

jon doe I don’t think you know the Judo belt system. And as far as effective I’m gonna need you to stand up from your butt scooting before you can lecture me on effectiveness. You haven’t actually refuted any of my points you simply said I was wrong. I have provided evidence for my case, and a counter to your claim that I have no experience. All you’ve done is say that I’m wrong so I will give you a bit more evidence and let the matter go. What are the two most common ko strikes and submission holds in mma ( which is clearly the best way to test what works against resisting opponents) lead hook, rear straight, armbar, and RNC. What do these things have in common. ( they are reasonably simple moves that work. What don’t you see. Spinning head kicks and omoplatas. Why? Because there is too much room for things to go wrong. In fact the fact that the best in the world can do them and have them work. Isreal Adasanya and big Nog come to mind. Is what makes them so amazing. Simple works often and complex works against little resistance. Simple as that.

[@savagecoconut1735]

The founder had strikes involved in his techniques I found in one of his books, I call it stunners myself, not devastating blows.aikido I think is deceptive,not in your face scrapum kine

[@simonedwards5437]

People always go on about daito ryu is better because it's a "Jutsu" rather than a "Do" Well to be honest they are all the same. Without resistance it's all kata keiko at the end of the day

Guys, you are so cool! Amazing stuff, your are repositioning Aikido in a new exciting way. One question: Has Bob already trained in Daito-Ryu Aikijujutsu?

[@SLYSCOMBATIVECONCEPTS13]

DaitoFighters lol yeah he's the one that taught katsuyuki kondo.

[@SLYSCOMBATIVECONCEPTS13]

DaitoFighters That was a joke. Actually neither one of us have formal training in Daito Ryu Aikijujitsu. Althought we have done individual study in that art.

[@banki1474]

i think most people forget alot of martial art styles where develop to fight or defened in a verry diferent time and based on the fighting style common to that part of the world they wouldnt encouter the kickboxing we have today or other competitive fighting sports samurai used aikido grapling in sword fights it wouldnt look as pretty as you see in the dojo but alot of it worked in that era so i dont think you can compare it to other pro competitive fighting you see now

[@magicbanana3393]

6:04 Your fist is wider if you keep it horizontal. If you're aiming with the bigger knuckles that's probably not worth it especially if You need to reach farther You want power (going all the way gets you much better joint alignment with less torque for the triceps and shoulder to deal with)

having willing opponents is so cool.

Very nice techniques guys. I love the variations you share. They seem very well laid out and carefully constructed, especially for a spur of the moment, wingin' it as we go session. Quite the innovators you are! Super talent. Thank you for sharing it. I'd also like to thank you for improving the audio content. I don't know if you bought new microphones, or added a few well placed anechoic panels in the studio/ compound, but the results are much improved and quite noticeable. That annoying reverberation is almost completely gone. Way better! Kudos guys!!!

[@craigbolton5949]

Another blowout video it's mind-blowing Lenny what you can do I hate to see the things you haven't showed us I'm sure you have a lot of things up your sleeve brutal the way we like it keep up the good work

[@ef8crxb16]

poor dude is a rag doll

[@danielsanmetzger]

I like a lot of your content. But a punch coming at you I don’t think you’ll hit the pause button on an attacker to kick him in the ribs. Take your same thought and do a Mae Geri to the thigh or a more circular movement like a mawashi Geri to get off line.

[@jimmyalderson1639]

You clearly identify as training aikid. But how do you distinguish between aikido and aikijutsu? If i were to watfh this without sound i'd think it was aikijutsu. So how do you define the two styles? And what is it that makes your style still aikido, as opposed to aikijutsu?

[@PhilipZeplinDK]

Apart from a few specific techniques found in each, there isn't any real difference between Aikijujutsu and Ueshibas Aikido. Ueshiba called his Aikido "Aikijujutsu" well into the years of training people, the name change just came later. Obviously styles have varied more since then, but if you look at the few rare examples of footage of O' Sensei, and the few rare examples of old Daito Ryu footage, you'd see it's basically the same stuff.

[@fatmirkabashi3371]

@@SLYSCOMBATIVECONCEPTS13 Thank you, I was always a big fan of Aikido, but since KZbin it's always been attacked because the practitioners are straight from their momma's tit and have no real fight experience before learning Aikido bringing ZERO executing moves with "Bad Intentions" like you do. They might as well be doing YMCA Tai chi. I'm signing up for Aikido, but implementing your executing of bad intentions for street defense purposes against deadly threats!🙏

[@artinelldillard2450]

I love these guys I love this channel I wish I could meet these guys.

[@telsat]

People mock aikido thinking that it’s no good in a street fight. First off, there would never be a fight because the second you try to grab, shove or punch an aikido master, basically at this point he’s already wrecking you into submission and there’s no way in hell that he’ll let you try again. Aikido master, don’t need to attack, because he uses the attackers own energy combined with lightning speed to stop his aggressor. And that folks is the ultimate martial art form. Its not perfect so aikido masters learn other martial arts. If your still not convinced well be my guest and try to punch a master aikido. Good luck

[@updod88]

Go see Aikido masters fight other fighters from others styles then.

[@eugenes9068]

Just amazing. Lenny, it's really creative.

[@NewWorldMMA1]

I definitely dig this. You gentlemen have a sound understanding of combatives, which is a loss with many MMA and TMA practitioners. This looks more like the rare aikijutsu principles.

[@bujin5455]

7:35 There are very good reasons not to do this. It's very difficult to execute a kick to the ribs correctly from this position (as arm's reach is really too close for this kick). Watch as his center falls back in the kick. That's not a good kick. A good kick has an advancing center, which is hard to accomplish as you are still attempting to gain control, which is the entire point of the kick (to loosen up his center). Now if you already have control (demonstrated by uke's hand on the ground), you can kick them no problem, but otherwise, you're risking this ending up on the ground as you give up your center to attempt a less than optimum kick to the ribs. One should remember, the attacker has momentum and a second arm available, and you're lifting your foot off the ground to put it into his immediate reach, why risk it when it's not needed? If you do want to kick him, it's better to kick the knee. You could fold and/or break the joint, and it will be a faster kick since the target is closer to your foot (less time to react to it and you have your full center back sooner), it will require less articulation and thus less modification to your center (which means you're more stable, and you are telegraphing less through your physical connection), the striking point will be further from the guy's hand which will serve to confound his attempts to grab the foot (if he even realizes you're kicking him, since your center is moving less, and the kick is happening faster). 7:58 This is an even worse idea. What's the point of this? I don't need my knee to apply pressure to the elbow. Why would you even want to do this? Because the attacker is just "oh so strong you need your leg"? If you need your knee to complete this technique, then you need both of your feet on the ground to stabilize your center. Besides, anyone halfway competent with ikkyo really ought to be able to produce ungodly force with just their hands. The first part of this variation at least made a little sense, stomp kicking the ribs will certainly have an effect (assuming all goes well), but this last part is simply showing off for the sake of showing off and not only that it's dangerous to practice. In a real fight, you might lose your balance away from your attacker, which results in him on top of you. (Not good.) In the dojo, you might lose your balance toward uke, and accidentally break his elbow in the tumble. (The odds of which increase rapidly as you heat up your practice.) Injuries happen, especially if your truly training, but I've had students hurt each other playing grab ass, and it's no fun taking someone to the hospital over a situation which could have and should have been avoided, and which provided no value to either student. Just because your legs are involved doesn't automatically make it better. This variation "looks" more violent, but it really isn't producing net value. Otherwise, fantastic presentation! Thank you.

[@teddy9594]

HELLO Lenny, I am glad to see that there is someone who is giving back this letter of nobility to this art that I love so much. We must recognize that it is this side that has always missed the aikidoka themselves. How to deal with a boxer for example or the reality side or street. the traditional side is good, but too devious and many people have never seen aikido as complete. So thank you very much for your work. I really need it where I am (Africa, Gabon)

[@roberth9704]

improper distance/ too far away ..... a kick or a punch from that distance works. You have to be much closer for a knee, then uke could punch you right in the snot box for being to close.

[@fulanodetaldoorkut]

You are trying to look badass, but using techniques against a not resisting oponent. You may argument that you will not be atacked by trained fighters on the street, but even the most untrained fighter is a resisting one. So, nothing pratical to see here.

[@pasjonatpl]

Have you ever trained aikido or anything similar? I have. For a short time. I'm not sure how effective these techniques are in real fight but I can tell you one thing. When you get to that position, someone applies a technique correctly and makes pressure on your elbow or wrist, resistance is painful. I know that. I felt that pain when I tried to resist. Just the point is not to follow that, if someone's technique isn't correct. You can feel that. But if it is, you can feel that you can get something broken, if you resist. Of course no one will break someone's joint or arm in the training but you can feel it's possible.

[@fulanodetaldoorkut]

@@pasjonatpl yes i have trained AIKIDO and when the technique connects it works, the problem is that those techniques are called low percentage techniques because are very very difficult to connect on a resisting opponent. It is very likely that you will be defeat before you can connect some aikido technique in perfection.

[@deforeestwright2469]

Good video. I have two issues with it. 1) Like so many videos on Aikido, uke begins by bending forward and going for nage's wrist or center rather than standing up straight and throwing punches at nage's face, like a real attacker. 2) Doesn't interpolating striking techniques into a rougher, simpler, more realistic Aikido basically just make it into Hapkido? Sombody correct me if I am wrong.

[@miscellaneousrichardo1409]
