JUNKYARD AIKIDO: A Practical Guide To Joint Locks, Breaks, And Manipulations

JUNKYARD AIKIDO
A Practical Guide To Joint Locks, Breaks, And Manipulations
Featuring Michael D. Janich
www.staysafemedia.com/junkyard...
Joint locking is one of the most complex, frustrating, and difficult-to-learn skill sets in the martial arts. Its practical application in self-defense is also widely misunderstood and sometimes highly overrated. When properly understood and applied, however, it can be an incredibly quick and efficient fight stopper.
Junkyard Aikido cuts through the myth and misinformation to make joint locking skills accessible to any martial artist or self-defense practitioner. Using the proven analytical style that defines his popular instructional method, Michael Janich leads you step by step through both the techniques and the concepts of combative joint locks. Starting with the fingers and progressing methodically through the wrists, elbows, shoulders and neck, Janich shows you how to use the same motions of your body against both the right and left sides of your attacker to produce different, yet highly effective locks. Many of these simple mechanics also reveal the "hidden" applications of classical martial arts technique.
Instead of throws and submissions, the applications of Junkyard Aikido focus on breaking joints and creating opportunities for disabling strikes that will decisively end a fight. It also teaches you locks as the basis for weapon strips and disarms, giving you a decisive advantage over an armed attacker.
To complete the package, Janich analyzes the weaknesses of many traditional locking methods, teaches you simple but effective counters to them, and shows you how to modify your lock technique to prevent counters.
Junkyard Aikido is a slightly irreverent, non-denominational approach to learning and applying joint locks. If you want the function without the dogma, this video is for you.

Finally, an instructor who shows the technique in slow motion along with a coherent explanation of how to obtain the lock and then apply it. Also, I am happy to find an instructor who doesn't take a sadistic pleasure by subjecting his partner to an unnecessary degree of pain, or extreme discomfort, in order to get a few laughs from the assembled students. One of the better joint lock tutorials you will find on KZbin

[@Rhobyn]

Thank you for being respectful. And objective. I train Aikido and while I have stopped arguing with people years ago, it is refreshing to see someone who can appreciate The goals and methods of different martial arts.

[@Azulmorroco]

BRAVO

[@thebigbadwolf904]

Great for showing the use of aikido it's the person who wields the technique properly that can make it work.

[@MrCopTom]

My wife has never studied Aikido or any other Martial Art BUT somehow she's got it in her DNA to be good at grabbing my fingers and inflicting pain.

[@MonkeyHerder3]

I think your wife and mine are long lost sisters...

[@akrocuba]

The government implants micro-chips in their heads as soon as a girl is born so they know how to hurt their husbands many years to follow birth....LOL

[@randycurtis1176]

That was funny. My daughters and I would practice wrist grabs, both escape and transitioning to offense. A couple of silly boys (these were all fourteen or fifteen year old kids) found that she was hard to dunk at the pool and in fact they found out the my skinny darter could "cause them to unwilling participate in their own baptism." She also understands that in an actual assault those techniques work better when preceded by a poke, palm or kick to one of several more tender targets. And our wives may be related. Mine used to grab my billy goatish beard and move me. The husband is the head of the family but the wife's the neck that turns the head. Good day.

[@sKeM2k9]

Why the fuk do so many women (99 percent) think that it's okay to fuking assault their man... honestly that shit needs to stop... honestly wtf gives a human being the right to assault another human being because its socially unacceptable to hit a woman no matter what they do... they can burn down your house while screaming straight into your ear while bashing your head with a ham fist... but its not okay to just put em in a rear naked but no choking just to calm them down... lol you'd get arrested and ass fucked in jail for the rest of your life LOLLLL.... Any woman reading this right now who thinks that it's okay to assault another human being just because your losing an argument and your made yourself look stupid as fuk and hes just pointing it out for you so you get mad an assault him... you need to br decked in the face and have your nose broken and then hopefully you'll learn your lesson... but most wont.. most will just get mad and blame the man for everything... never once taking responsibility for your actions... instead ur gonna cry and play the victim and do everything in your power to ruin that mans life... that's u... you're a piece of shit... dont blame the guy.. blame yourself... it's not the guys fault that u said something stupid and the guy points out that you're wrong and you have such a big ego (which u dont even know what the concept or definition of an ego is... also part of the problem... you're stupid as fuk...) that you cant stand being wrong let alone admit it and just move on... no it's too crushing for you to handle... so you gotta resort to physical violence to defend your ego... please just get over the fact you're an immature fukin cunt who will never evolve consciously and u are the spawn of satan and you must be cast back to the depths of hell from whence u spawned... please kill yourself... too many good men have been tortured enough by your kind... you're not needed... the gene pool must be cleansed of your kind... please kill yourself... it's for the betterment of MAN-kind...

[@daneck100]

That actually would be considered Chin na !

[@4fabian]

"he doesn't care what it's called, he just cares that is hurts" Classic - and true ... nice one - wish I were your student !

[@linasnamorado3534]

Brother, I've had my head kicked a few times over the years... I'm 40 now. I've been around the planet. I'm not especially tough. THANK YOU. I'm gonna short cut my troubles in order to protect myself. You gave me that. THANK YOU. You gave me this as a gift, and I appreciate it. Brother, THANK YOU.

[@petertracanna6679]

Great video, simple and easy....And effective! As a Bouncer I am constantly looking "compliance" techniques that also have the ability to end a confrontation. Thanks again!

[@w40707derek]

I have 11 of these various discs, and I see them as the most informative collection of instructional discs I have ever seen, Thank you Mr. Janich for sharing your vast knowledge. I have been practicing alone and with a co'worker for months and have joined an Aikido club so as to practice your junkyard moves in application. I do my striking on punching bags and my Hubud and other openings with strikes on my Mook Jong with an attached bamboo roll for stomps and kicks. I am particularly fond of palm strikes but also practice hammer and knife blows. After over 30 years of studying boxing I have those strikes and moves very ingrained. I take the Aikido because locally no one teaches your concepts and your applications on Aikido fascinated me. Thanks again for such a comprehensive analysis and demonstration to both you and Mr. Luke and all others in these productions. After a few weeks of Aikido I am as a flounder that finds itself in Kansas. I am becoming aware of spiral movements and how the body is made on a spiraling concept through the body, even left side-right half brain controlled, left side-right brain half controlled, Now I am trying to put this into application using the coiling body action and your techniques. Wow, so much learning I've got to simplify and get my basic plan. The fun is just beginning.

[@colonelfatass]

Hey mate, how is your progress going? Hope it's been a good for years for you. Peace.

[@daddydeaner]

I am an "Aikido Guy" and you have a very good understanding of it

[@ElliottTran7]

I love how Michael explained the uses of the lock, how 'nobody is going to grab your wrist' but it's to get the motion of it, most videos just show how to do it :/ which is pretty useless, and I love his explanation of locking body joints! Sounds so complicated and exciting haha (that came out a little weird)

[@nickmacaluso6585]

I liked that part too, but in my limited wrestling background even I know that it very common to grab wrists in altercations, especially in the moments just before a fight.

[@DandDskeeto]

Please don't tell me people get insulted by the term "JUNKYARD AIKIDO". As a martial artist HEAVILY influenced by Aikido ( as opposed to being an Aikidoka ) I am almost inclined to be proud of that term. While working as a bouncer ( in VERY rough places ), ALL my Aikido WAS "JUNKYARD AIKIDO" no matter how hard I tried to use perfect technique.

[@greymajickjedi]

What a great video! :D Not only is this guy a great thinker for not merely following a discipline, but adding his own uniqueness to it, he's also a great teacher. He makes everything so simple a child can understand it. *Arigatou gozaimashta!*

[@StaySafeMedia]

Thank you. Train hard, train often.

[@TheRogueMonk]

you are right in aikido there are 2 things that are effective despite people saying its not... locks... and tiasabaki distancing and evasion and escape

[@keithgee9971]

Learned some of these simple techniques in the police academy many years ago- shuts down confrontations fast

[@malonejason77]

This is a fantatic practical system. Thank you for sharing. I respect all the martial arts and agree with your idea.

[@TheFarkKnight]

I have never realized how much of a valuable asset KZbin can be. Thank you for a very educational and practical upload.

[@StaySafeMedia]

Thank you for your honest and thoughtful reply.

[@Sharkman3472]

Mike Janich always has awesome material! He takes old school moves and just makes them easier and more effective. His Martial Blade Concepts by the way is sweet as hell too!

[@BlizzarDofBabyloN]

This is awesome!!!! Gotta start learning these joint locks

[@troyt6864]

thank you sir. much appreciate your demonstration of your aikido. Looking forward to more.

[@randymcdaniel8913]

Practicing these technique will help you when you need them. What I like about them is in a grappling situation the joint will become available and with practice you can hit the lock. You have to train in whatever you do for it to work. I train in a version of these locks regularly and what I like to do if someone resist is to change directions and/or kick. I'm a believer in training to better yourself and also to find what works best for you. Thanks Michael D. Janich for posting these vids.

[@fburtt]

NIce work, some of the best instruction I've ever seen online.!

[@GabrielSanchez-ts3ph]

Found this video very refreshing. There are many of us who are coming from the same place of respect that Mr. Janich is, while not wishing to achieve rank in Aikido, AikiJJ or JJ. I am simply a karateka that wants to have a few joint locks in my toolkit and this video was right on the money for me. I look forward to exploring more of Mr. Janich's videos. Thank you very much for posting.

[@javiermercado6960]

Great articulation of the technique and body mechanics. Thank you. Will be looking at more of your videos 👍🏼

[@stonedstew]

I found this absolutely informational.. I had a seminar with with Wally Jay in Grants Pass Oregon and still teach this excellent technique in our Judo class..

[@williampatterson717]

First came across small circle jujitsu many years ago when someone let me video we're in the security services and I got fascinated by it I practice it regularly and I believe is definitely the way forward.👍 keep this stuff coming it's dynamite

[@mr.holgersen]

Sweet. Just saw a few movements I can incorporate into my regular practice. Thanks.

[@diirtburns]

Well done! Thank you for posting this video.

[@shadeshiest22]

Great video! Great job of explaining and demonstrating each technique!!

[@benblanco3743]

Well done Sir. Well done.

[@sabreactual]

Awesome information. I used similar on the streets as a cop. What works, works when it works and when it doesn't you flow to next level of Use of Force. It's all a toolbox.

[@MrJrhzues]

Proud to see this

[@plalelal]

"Both ends moving around the center." What a great explanation! I like that better than push.pull.

[@kravmagadave]

This video is awesome, best one I've come across

[@legambaz]

Great explanation. Clear and systematic.

[@marktheunitedstatescitezen185]

Junkyard Aikido thank you for what works !

[@rahnosborne]

Very informative Vid, Loved it!! Well explained as well!

[@quik876]

Very much in the vein of Hapkido, stripping down to the essentials to obtain the desired effect, great view of concepts too. Awesome.

[@beausherman9709]

Awesome video! Helped me out a lot!

[@KenpoGuyProductions]

I appreciate your approach to the arts! as well as the respect you shared in the beginning of the video, well done sir!

[@markracadio5207]

Thanks foot the review janich. Hope to have more of this take care

[@knowleskarateacademy3347]

Good stuff. Thank you for sharing!

[@davidglenn33]

In my experience, joint locks are "happy circumstances" that present themselves. It takes awareness and skill to find these and then execute, at the appropriate time. Just one of many techniques you need to be proficient in.

[@kd5ozy]

exactly! In a perfect situation they work perfectly. If all else fails take out the eyes

[@vova_rn]

Very good video, thank you for taking time..

[@keything8487]

Great video...I look forward to seeing more.....and poor Vince

[@johnp4258]

I really appreciate the information.

[@stevetroise299]

Aikido is very fascinating !!

[@32thomasneely]

Great video. Thanks so much!!

[@DomMcManus]

Great video. Very informative!! Thanks!

[@franklinnanai2745]

Thank you for sharing, good to share

[@rickfrier1647]

Thank you for sharing great vid

[@dvtco.2545]

11 years later this is still great information for those of us who really do not want to play "Tag. You're it!'

[@LandofMoriah]

Awesome....great teacher in technique. I see and understand what is being taught. I have subscribed. Thank you so much...Joe

[@Innavata90]

Really great video!!! I think aikido is one of the best martial arts in the world!!!

[@StateOfMind63]

I love it when I come across new techniques! Shiho-Nage and the last compression move are totally new to me (I practice Combat Hapkido and Kung Fu). Thanks for the video, its useful!

[@jodyguilbeaux8225]

most of these techniques are found in aiki jujitsu and aikido. about 30 years ago i have seen a video on professor wally jay. and that old man was throwing opponents all over the place. i think his video SMALL CIRCLE JUJITSU , is the bible of all joint locks , arm bars and throws.

[@richardmanikowski5947]

I am an Aikido guy. if the techniques work for you than use it. don't worry about nae sayers!

[@1bkenny]

Fantastic!!!

[@pleasebringmeback]

great information. thanks

[@Olyjed]

So much for the Dynamic Sphere.

[@waynesardana5329]

Very helpful techniques.

[@Arquaizt]

Excellent! Shortening the radius is brilliant. I've been practicing aikido/Jujutsu for years and have used the "Chain-link" analogy when describing joint locks on the arm. (If it's loose it takes more torque to lock the links) thanks.

[@buzzries2040]

Great info. Thank you

[@j2112c]

Bought the dvd... exceptional... !!!

[@jasonmyers1002]

Good explanation of techniques. Please post a video of these techniques being used at your local MMA gym to demonstrate how well they work when the situation is dynamic and non-consensual against a strong, athletic, skilled opponent.

[@Shalomgabo]

Great job

[@marcoralito1445]

Thank you for the Information 👍

[@eyeofbass]

Well done. Cheers.

[@daneck100]

You get a GOLD star !! not many people know that , Good job !!

[@alanchristoffersen3304]

I study kamishin jiu jitsu with deals with a wide variety of joint locks and this video helped me to develop finishing variations to the locks I study now.

[@chanster48]

Very simple demonstration and good mechanics, I like how "you" are teaching not looking for glory. I would recommend all women learn some of these basics as they may save your life. Very good video

[@PeteKnoll57]

From Backyard Wing Chun to Junk Yard Aikido ...great video I like the way you handle all the grips and locks thank you for sharing and I will implement some of these techniques in my teachings..

[@TrinityMartialArts]

i want more!!! i love this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MrJrhzues]

This was brilliant

[@hku99]

Great stuff thanks

[@lynnhorner7646]

I found this very helpful. I am a 2nd degree black belt in Tang Soo Do, and we did a lot of work on basic arm bars, but these are of a different variety which I find very useful.... Thanks very much.... Subscribed & Liked

[@wm21611]

Useful information for personal use

[@tallulabellmaritzamercado7718]

I really do like that you mentioned the "NO DISRESPECT" PART. Can't forget your if you want to argue, I ain't the one kinda thing... I appreciate you... Angel Eiez

[@krupalvithlani]

Wally Jay is a legend in a way, so glad you recalled him.

[@NeverFearMistakes]

Love the title; Thank you thank you!

[@JakeHunter2010]

Like a college Professor. Mike Janich is one of the best and more technical martial arts instructors around.

[@Ejaazi]

As an Aikidoist, I find these principles very useful. I will be using them in the development of my Aikido.

[@jc_casper]

great teaching ...

[@jamieleeleblanc]

We use all of those joint locks in Kempo Jiu-Jitsu and they are awesome. Good video!

[@abdelsalamabbas9060]

very helpful .. Respect

[@MilitiauScom]

Love it, very much like Rob MaCewen's approach.

[@heisenberg2729]

Awesome man, wish I could take lessons from you!

[@almagore1]

Awesome!

[@greggriffiths9053]

Liked the shortened shionage I was using the turn around good seeing a different way to do it.

[@daneck100]

you may say that you're not an Aikido guy , much respect for that but you do know your stuff my son is third-degree Korindo Aikido Aikijujitsu and I've had my share of Aikido aiki jujitsu Chin na and I'm a second-degree Kenpo black belt , you're good thank you so much for this video !

[@kravmagacanada]

I'm teaching Krav Maga for 13 years and we use also these locks but i learn from this video a few new things and i liked it very much. even if you don't have a degree in Aikido you still are a professional to me i have all the respect for you.

[@YaaqovCrow]

Man thanks for this vid, I could never wrap my mind around the semi bent arm compression lock 'till now.

[@yaicherabah2652]
