The Art of Aikido volume 1 by Rev. Kensho Furuya

[@lambie3563]

I am so fortunate to have trained with him many years ago when he first opened his dojo in LA! I miss him greatly! So sorry he passed at such a young age! Salute to him!!

[@guyetundi5501]

Aikido is a magical art that opens the mind to a dimension greater than sport. For example, returning hostile energy to the sender, or learning to let go, or understanding that you are one with your partner or the universe, understanding that without contact there is no confrontation, etc... Having said that, I can understand why many people are offended by the practice and effectiveness of aikido. But at the end of the day, no martial art protects us from violence, and no martial art is truly complete. That's why fighters looking for maximum efficiency in combat sports (UFC) practice all disciplines, mixing boxing, muy thai, judo, wrestling, BJJ and so on. There is no such thing as a good or bad martial art. For Aikido practitioners, I'll add boxing and judo.

[@TimRHillard]

I hope to someday to visit Furuya Sensei's dojo. Thank you for making this free for all to watch. May he rest in peace, he made an amazing impact on our world.

[@AikidoCenterLA]

Tim. You are welcome to come by anytime! Thanks for watching

[@SawDavid-tg3rh]

We love aikido..We love Mr Kensho Furuya though he passed away....We are from Rangoon karen youth.

[@MH-zg5yw]

what many people miss with this drill (especially the anti-Aikido crowd) is that the emphasis is really on footwork. You are learning to move in circular motions in relationship to your opponent. With your movement you are breaking your opponent's rhythm.

[@alf3597]

This is the best instructional video I have seen from this akido instructor when I did akido many years ago regarding putting the attacker of balance was not explained so I am finding wear I was going wrong thanking you sense from Alf

[@bigsidable]

My life changed the minute I took the time to understand true Aiki. I’ve studied 3 others style. And I find all of them in Aiki. But with no violence.

[@franckauger9490]

Stop giving explanations to anti-aikido crowd. We don't need explanations. You have just to see demonstration to laugh ....and footwork is in every sport ...

[@Billy-Mandalay]

Best explanation of techniques and practices ever. Love this series. No wasted words, yet jam packed with information.

Through understanding you come into the motion and movement and guide the natural momentum of adversarial energy. This is to be applied to social situations to disarm needless enmity and ridiculous bullying/imposed-imperialism. been in Aikido stance since 1997, 24/7.

[@eliotquintana9802]

Very good techniques in dojo to respect dojo

[@gatbos]

Instead of seeing the confrontation as a "fight", it seems better to see it more as a "dance" when the opponent's moves are initiated. Much Respect to the teacher in the video. I wish i had the honor of being his student. He seemed like a real good hearted person May his soul be in eternal peace🙏

[@esugumshoe]

Probably the best explanation of Aikido techniques. It is very sad he passed so young.

[@AikidoCenterLA]

Thank you James. We are saddened too. We appreciate that you watched!

[@AikidoCenterLA]

Thank you. I know what you are saying. Furuya Sensei was our teacher and this is his dojo and I am fighting with KZbin because some other Aikido organization uploaded his videos and says they have the copyright. What's done is done. All the best to you!

Thank you very much Sensei. Student from Sydney, Australia.

[@aardvarkhendricks6555]

Around 5:35 he says to extend the hand in order to have proper spacing. That is directly contrary to Sensei Kondo's instruction from the Daito Ryu. The reason someone would grab your hand as a samurai during the Edo period would be to either stop you from accessing the katana, wakizashi and tanto or prevent you from attacking them with a weapon already in your hand. Thus if the wrist grab is to stop you from accessing a weapon system, your hands would be near your hips. And even if someone already had a weapon in their hand, the person would maneuver first, block or jam second and then try kote gaeshi NOT just grab the wrist as it is difficult to catch a stabbing motion at the wrist area.

the problem that I have with all these techniques is there is no finishing of the opponent! throwing the opponent just give him an opportunity to come back and attack you again, that is a problem

[@bonhzeppelin55]

To ACLA Master Aikido Instructor, what is the significance of breath power in aikido? Is it similar to Chi in chinese martial arts, & breathing from the tantien or tanden(?), which is the source of chi from a few inches below the belly button? The Aikido book I had did not go into any detail on the definition or technique of breath power (Chi/Ki development) & its proper application. I hope you can help me on this. Thank You!

[@perrypelican9476]

@@EduardoRodriguez-ks4em that's very cool but don't call it a martial art. Call it a sport or an exercise plan, or even a way if life, anything but a martial art. Is water skiing a martial art? Why not? It is peaceful, like aikido.
