Gratitude to Sergei Merkushev, Ken Blaylock, and Sensei Toribio for the fantastic ukemi. Circa 1999.
congratz, I hope my shodan in november goes as well as yours
Awesome
Roy Dean is the Man! Now I see why his BJJ is so smooth and stylish!! Congrats
Well done!
Now that seems like the most practical Aikido I have seen. Nice
The best aikido I have ever seen.
awesome.
beautiful fluid techniques! bravo!
Muy buen video, me ha gustado mucho!! Saludos desde Aikido Musubi Badalona
Greatings from Aikido Musubi Badalona ( Spain)
Very good and excellent technique
aikido is very efective techics, you watch “samurai spirit aikido”
sorry for double post, but i have to add, that the video itself is very, very good
and scene-cutting is awsome.
thx
i have seen many aikido practice movies.
many!
this is probably the best ever!
smooth, fast, flowting and very authentic from my humble
perspective.
this does not look like a dance as usual.
the uke not like a dummy.
this is transcendental.
thx for sharing this.
Well done and I understand why Sensei became Uke for a time. Some technique you can judge by observation and other technique must be felt.
look how good this is
Nice
Yes, to front kicks, side kicks…
and trying a fly kick at an aikidoka would be just too stupid
Maybe it was to see if their techniques were effective. Sometimes uke’s just go along for the ride
Not complaining, but I can’t understand why the Sensei became an Uke in this demonstration.
they failed in the test
Usually tall guys have a hard time with a shorter uke, but this guy blends in with the attacks very well. Very nice!!!
Nice.
No ‘ushiro’ techniques (ushiro ryote dori, ushiro eri dori, ushiro kata dori kubishime, …) ?
someone really got good techniques there. not bad at all.
