good to see a majority of positive comments on Aikido, as appose to the negativity I've read on other videos, quite often from MMA fans... I've been training in Aikido for nearly nine years now and it has enriched my life many fold...

It was a pleasure seeing the smiles on the childrens faces, truely clear minds and innocence. Very enlightening.

I've trained Tomiki Aikido for 33 years (competed in Japan twice) and found this video delightful. I hope his series is picked up by a commercial network. Well done!

Those kids were RIDICULOUS! There's got to be a law against such over whelming cuteness.

Aikido generally doesn't do much sparring until higher levels, but everywhere is different. But where I train, the sensei is very martially minded. While compensating for skill level, you strike to hit, and defend as though they are really out to get you. Train like this, and its very difficult to be surprised in a real situation. If they resist what you try to do or the situation changes, you try for another technique. All techniques are trained with partners.

That is an excellent question and one I struggled with. My instructor has explained it to me as self defense is NOT fighting, it is defense. When you defend, your mission is to end the fight, not prolong it. So the moves you learn are absolutely devastating if done correctly and are designed to inflict maximum damage. If you practice fight or spar, you are purposely not inflicting maximum damage and actually hurting your training. Send me a message if you have questions or want reading material.

note...The Name Aikibudo wasn't changed to Yoshinkan Aikido. It was shortened to Aikido by Ueshiba Morihei. Yoshinkan was the name of Shioda Sensei's Dojo.

There is a short documentary about it on KZbin, if you haven't seen it, it's great. I was foolish enough to first read about it, and think it was the perfect candidate for my planned 1 year studying Aikido in Japan. After watching the documentary, I'm pretty sure that's not a level of dedication I'm willing to put myself at, LOL.

@cbase4 We have the same mentality in Shodokan Aikido as well :)

As it should be in all arts. Even sparing is just play. Ask the few who have ever had to defend themselves on the street or in war--life and death often revert to simple, but effective techniques. And death happens, most will never get over it, even if they are fully in the right.

Training aikido in an Alive fashion doesn't need to increase injury rates. I do it in the Clinch range with my students while sparring,and the wristlocks makes people want to tackle you because they don't want your hands on them,lol. I'll put up vids of me nailing people off of the 2 on 1,head and arm,judo grips,etc.

@fightjapanrc If you train with the proper mindset, you will at least be better prepared for a real situation.

@Ronnock That is the million dollar question for whole host of martial arts that do not involve sparring or any other kind of isomorphic training. If you have never trained for war how will your body and mind really know how to respond?

@fightjapanrc Yeah, I suppose you train yourself mentally to be explosive during the martial art training, and train your body to be explosive during other times of training, not directly associated with the martial art you're learning. I do agree though, that if these students trained with the intention of causing harm (or if the Ukes weren't compliant) there would be a gross frequency of injuries.

My sensei RandomlyRandom5 is like that as well. We where practicing one technique and sensei saw that me and my partner where not putting the full strength into the strike and block. So he went to show us that we need to where he went to strike me and my mistake didnt block properly. Ended up getting smacked in the face. Because my block was to weak.

Dude im sorry but for a person to go from whitebelt to blackbelt in only 11 months in any form of Aikido or any other martial art for that matter would mean training for literally 8 hours a day 7 days a week and even then that is still probably not going to be enough to time to have fully mastered all the techniques required for Shodan. Still it is cool to know that it is possible I guess.

Why don’t aikido practitioners pick fights nowadays to test their art? MMA would be a good proving ground, if not grappling comps... Also, for that ‘master’ to knock a willing participant unconscious (who is trying to help him demonstrate the technique) proves nothing. Get in the ring big man and take on some resisting fighters, you’ll get smashed

By "free-style" fighting, do you mean, "sparring"? If there's no sparring, how can they ever really test their theories of what they practice? I want to learn Aikido (Aikibudo more specifically), so I'm just merely curious--not a nay-sayer, heheh--.
