tweet this video to rokas! this answers his question about an aikido technique about why the person grabbing your wrist wouldn't just let go --- you're the one holding a weapon!

[@taidamhuy562]

I googled the title of this book and there are many books with same title. Can you give me the specific name and the author’s name and year of publication?

[@arnoldcohen1250]

This puts the basic moves of Aikido into perspective. Most/all are really weapon based maneuvers - retaining yours or protecting against the attacker. While they can be used in hand to hand/unarmed combat, their roots lie in armed warfare. Thank you, this is a key insight that reinforces the relevancy of the art.

[@shodansmith]

You are spot my friend, I have been practicing Traditional Aikido/Aiki jujutsu for 20yrs and it's ALWAYS the context its applied in, no martial art is superior to another it is purely down to the practitioner and their individual application and of course, how hot the fire in their belly is! @chadi thanks again for a fantastic video and logical breakdown!

Thank you for putting up this video. I was the founder and owner of a US Federal Contractor, Centurions Defense, and we built combatives and defensive tactics programs for military Special Operations and the FBI. Our FBI program was called: CADS-Counter Aggressor Defense System, and it utilized many of these techniques. There has been mountains of research that shows that the assailant and the defender both have a psychological imperative to hold onto the weapon because the weapon is deemed the tool for their survival. The survival instinct is primal and so it is unrealistic to think that an assailant or defender is going to let go of the weapon for even common sense reasons. Primal instinct overrides common sense every time. It has been shown in numerous studies that if weapons are involved then the need to control them is absolutely paramount and people will risk their lives to hold onto and maintain weapons. We have to teach (and it is difficult to teach because it goes against Primal instinct) that there are times that one must let go of the weapon and BE the weapon themselves. For example releasing your hold of the weapon you are wrestling over to go for a direct finger choke of the trachea and to instantly crush it. And you'll be hard pressed to find people trained to that level of proficiency. At the same time weapons retention training is pivotal because assailants and offenders can lose control of their weapons through circumstances beyond their control. Again this is a very good video that you put up and I applaud your effort. You are clearly showing that these techniques are not only successful when applied correctly but also applicable and modern law enforcement and combat. Very strong work!👍

I've also seen some "grappling techniques" that are specially to prevent the other samurai to unsheathe his katana. The skills that seems redundant in MMA today are vital in a different situation and time zone. I am very skeptical about how practical of "sticky hand" of Wing-Chun in MMA but I do believe it has its place in knife fight.

This sticking you see in wing chun now is wrong. Its demonstrable historically and by praxis. You can't stick to him if he is not off balance. Sticking body Short Strike art like original 1850 wing chun looks much different. See Hendrik Santo. These modern lineages are ripoffs.

[@emilianosintarias7337]

See the youtube channel of Adam Chan if you want to see wing chun trapping principles ina real self defense art. Keep in mind several legendary boxers used trapping as well, but the wing chun version is not to try to chase limbs with your hands. It is not to try to grab stuff and then hit. When you see people doing that, they don't know how to fight.

[@RichQ6666]

It should be also added that with proper aiki (which locks up the joints and unbalances the attacker), they keep grabbing the hand simply because they cannot let it go. Many testimonies from those who were thrown by Ueshiba recalled that they just couldn't let go of the grab. Shioda Gozo (founder of Yoshinkan) also demonstrated many times, that if it's correctly executed, the attacker cannot let go of the hand. Not because of ki-power or any magic of course, it's all about physics and anatomy. Although it's really easy to make it look supernatural... Just my two cents.

[@dobo9150]

Three things: 1) Aikido is also every bit as empty-handed as sumo, which Ueshiba-sensei practiced first as a kid, and the grappling inclinations of which I do feel to be under-stressed among many aikidoka in my training experience. Although that low wrestling frame for understanding now informs every technique from seiza ever, for me. I do wish I understood how unarmed shomen and yokomen strikes mean collar ties, and how each grip fits in from an assumption of a tsuki-like pummelling/gripfighting exchange, before covid closed up my home dojo & made me move. But one cannot have everything, winge winge winge. 2) Aikido, like most training styles, seems its best when it helps practitioners grow their own living sense to see for themselves what the right move for them is in the moment. 3) Aikido, like most training styles, is at its worst when it is only practiced as a set of recipes, automoton-like, by people who expect technical reproduction of a form to always produce the same function in practice, regardless of how well or poorly it suits position, timing, etc. 4 [bonus?]) I wish I'd had the wherewithall to train countertechnique chaining practice and the rondori more, back when my life had space to train with others. That is the biggest aikido-shaped hole in my experience, which I have to work around in my current training alone.

[@paulovicente5781]

I always insist with my students to train long but fight short. Many techniques can only be done if one has a lot of space because they're wide and long. For actual fighting we need to deliver power (ki) with much shorter movements, like shortcuts...

[@Ecojock]

I was hoping you would address this topic, that is, putting jujutsu in its historical context specifically focusing on armed vs. unarmed combat.

[@Chadi]

Indeed, you can’t do/critique something without understanding it

[@marcosney4116]

Very important your explanation. In Aikido especifiacaly due to no duel/competition the understanding of the point of the technique is more dificult for the beginners. I my self always trained as if my life was in danger during the defenders role. It brings focus and aim for precison. Very well done.

[@okinawakenpodssi9054]

Outstanding! Flawless logic. Your teaching moments are like time capsules or messages in a bottle. As we find them floating in the KZbin universe oceans of mystique we can gain insight into how the past relates to the present. When degrees in martial arts science become relevant, I hope that your material becomes required study. Osu!

[@gregsullivan8065]

Thank you for your insights. This provides relevant historical context to the practice of Aikido, and it’s roots in traditional Japanese jujitsu. I’ve heard too many times “Aikido can’t beat MMA.” One is a traditional martial art for self defense and spiritual development, the other is a combat sport for vanquishing an opponent.

[@boddumblues]

There is a phenomenon which has to be adressed when people say why don't Uke let go of the grip. It's a little like the Gambian monkey trap. In a real situiation the attackers brain will not think about letting go while the motion is on, before the defender has changed position, and even finished the technique. A perfect AiKiDo technique is decieving, you can't really feel what is going on before the technique is over. You need to experience this first hand. Techniques work faster than cognitive thinking, tricking the brain of the attacker. It is a longwinded explanation, but it needs to be told. You learn to move position before moving the forarm, so Uke/attacker doesn't register the Irimi leading to kuzushi, before the defender is in place. So there is very little information coming from the wristgrap, so Uke is not inclined to let go because the fight is not present at the wrist. I hope this gets across. When kuzushi is ongoing the brain is occupied trying to regain control and balance and so the handgrip remains. That's why the spiral is at the center of AiKiDo techniques, it creates an uninterrupted line of movement that is hard to resist.

Aikido and Aiki-jutsu are a part of a more encompassing regimen, whose various schools were based upon the requirements of those enforcing law, and derived from techniques developed for warfare directly engaged on the battlefield over the hundreds of years of the Japanese feudal era. Each school deals with a specific challenge the various types of Samurai there were under the Daimyo's employ. I saw some techniques associated with Aiki-jutsu in this video, which is generally more aggressive than Aikido. Aikido's use of Ukemi actually relates to extending the safety of training, adding a quick defensive technique while also embracing Morihei Ueshiba's philosophy of the circularity of the flow of energy. A technique might start the flow, to a point of impasse (if you watch every example technique in the video almost all of them end with either a hold, or the Uke employing the use of Ukemi), where the receiver of the technique then completes the circular flow of energy by rolling back to a point of balance and safety. This is considered of the best practices to prolong training and avoid injury. Aikido deals mostly with the weakest area of the piece-mail armour from that era: the combatant's limbic joints, including work with various weapons based techniques utilizing the Bokken, Bo and Jo (standing in for the Naginata presumably), whose techniques also target the joints of the Uke. Other arts are derived to deal with displacing a combatant to the ground to gain control of them and their capacity to retaliate or to incapacitate them (Judo and Jujutsu). Karate-do deals mostly with strikes and blocks along the four quadrant system (Uke-uchi), and fluctuates between a hard and soft style, which translates to closed fist/open palm (as is the case with Goju-Ryu). Each school is a piece of a larger puzzle, a more encompassing regimen that holistically imbues the student to learn to deal with nearly any situation, by breaking these situations down into categories grouped by their corresponding school. Hence why almost all Samurai were masters of multiple schools, though their role would determine which schools they'd be required to master. Great subject to talk about and speculate, but very challenging to put this all physically into practice, especially within a human life span. Great video. Thank you.

The technique around the minute 4:00 is not made to prevent the hand taking merely. The sensei is moving around the bokken in such a manner that it is not hindered by the uke. However, the real movement is intended to prevent the hand taking as well as cut him while moving.

[@laterriusjackson722]

This is absolutely correct.

[@sirseigan]

Something I have seen in some old JuJutsu schools are "broken" or aborted throws where you in the middle of the throw will abort and just let the opponent fall down to the ground, not uncommonly with the application of hitting a knee on the way down. To illustrate to better: Think of an ordinary hip throw but when the opponent the highest peak the throw is aborted, perhaps even slammed, into the ground. In this very case case the opponent no longer get forwards momentum and will not flip over on the backside but rather fall straight down and land face and stomach first (if they do not hit a knee in the ribs on the way down. Is this concept something you have come across in you research Chadi?

[@andrewwye1058]

Ten years in Aiki - if approached as Ueshiba invented and approached it - i.e. as a means to do LESS damage in conflict situations - Aiki makes much more sense. If you know what is what, it is a highly dangerous/lethal skill set. If you learn with no ability to defend yourself and the view to be a better fighter, forget it. Aiki is for capable people/killers by disposition, who want to change, also being aware that total pacifism is not going to work for them in the current social conditions.

Just saw someone comment at aikido and yes aikido is weapon based art .the core of the art comes from being attacked with a weapon. Your mindset is different when attacking with a weapon. You are more focused on the weapon. It why aikido doesn't do well against bare handed fighting. Intent, distance and focus change. Aikido is good martial art. you just have to know what the techniques are for most do not.

😃 😊 😀 😄 😁, Police still have to be concerned about someone going for their pistol. Ike that cop in Charleston that shot a guy running, initially the guy reached for the cops gun, when he did this, he flipped the switch in the mind which you do not just turn it off. Many people do not know this. So he shot hisself, where he flipped the switch. 😃 😊 😀 😄 😁 😆 😃, but, police have to be alert to someone grabbing their pistol. Where being they wear a taser on the same belt, their belt should be designed so if someone grabs their pistol, the taser automatically stuns them, giving the officer the chance to hit them like in the back of their head and when they go to the ground, stomp their head more then the officer can make sure no one else is attacking.
