Or more precisely, black belt can't do shihonage on a 7th dan shihan.

why the insults?

not afraid to show your insecurities, good for you, junior.

Pure bullshido.

I asked this very thing of my instructor. He told me, it's all about intention. What is your intention. My intention is to grab, I said. Yes, he said, and my intention is to get out of your grab. If you simply let go, then I don't need to do anything. You have not gained anything and I have achieved my goal. But I'm not on the ground, I said. Yes, he said, but I too am also safe, I will not allow you to grab me. If your intention is to continue to try and grab and hold on to me, then you will end up on the ground.

That's the point. To force uke to let go or be doomed by his own hand. This sensei is very respected.

Aikido is the ultimate Martial Art, which means that you must not START by it. It's just an addition to EVERYTHING ELSE. So yeah, if something goes wrong, you need to be able to punch the guy in the face. And also know to block a punch. Or take one.

@@blop-a-blop9419 punching is intuitive as is blocking. There is no knowing how to take a punch. Maybe you could shift as your hit but that is it. Aikido is just a form if jujutsu that people I make crazy claims about for and against because they have some story to tell. Like you really gonna care what style you train in when most of the stuff is the same. Styles ruined karate!

Thanks Gergely! Great to hear from you, too. Hope you’re doing well in these Aikido-less times 😭

"Axial force" is not actually mentioned in the video. Also, while the teacher does not speak English as a first-language, he often says "around the axis" and "around the point", and we *think* most students understand what he's trying to say by this. Maybe not though! So thanks for your comment. We appreciate the clarification from an engineering point of view. :)

Thank you! :)

Hi sherman4970. You can find details of our affiliation on our website: www.brightonaikikai.org.uk TLDR: Christian Tissier grades our Yudansha Hope this helps.

I just noticed that it has been attached to the belt. Is it a good place from your experience?

That depends. These days we usually attach it to the front of the Hakama where the belt knot is, and we use a black sock to cover the green light. :D The position Sensei Tissier is wearing it in this video it kind of gets in the way of rolling and Koshi nage throws. He didn’t do any of that during this seminar, so it was okay. :)

Brighton Aikikai Nice trick 😎 Thanks for your reply 👍🏻

No problem!

Thanks for the comment David. You raise excellent points, and we think most of them can be addressed just by reminding ourselves of the key components of practice in any martial art: honesty and respect. Kata means, basically, choreography, and of course nobody we know teaches it as anything else. Kata is what you see in most Aikido videos, including ours. We practice in a mixed-art dojo, and with multi-discipline practitioners ranging from Karate to Muay Thai to BJJ. Despite practicing different arts with different emphasis, we all find common ground in our shared passion for budo and it’s multitude of applications, from fighting to not-fighting. Hope you’ll be able to drop by our dojo one day and see this. We’re proud to be both accepting and accepted among those we consider fine examples of their own art and discipline.

Do you want it to be true?

@@BrightonAikikai no sir I want to be false ...aikido seems so brutal locking and breaking joints...I want to be aikido very useful ..but it's not about me i am not aikido practicer I practice some self defence tools only ..

You've asked a very interesting question. The answer is a bit complicated though, because Aikido is designed to be more than just a system of self-defence techniques. Do you have a "self" worth defending? How about your family, friends, and neighbours? This is not for anyone to judge of course, but Aikido is a tool we can use for self-development as well as self-defence. Its purpose is to help people be in good relations with each other despite the capacity to be violent sometimes. In such a world there is no need for self-defence at all. :) Of course, this is a very ambitious goal! Perhaps it is impossible. It does not mean that Aikido techniques cannot be useful or "realistic", but this is not a problem of Aikido. It is a problem of the martial-artist. If you want to be an effective martial-artist it is best to practice as many martial-arts as possible to a good level. Aikido may be one of them, but we hope you get more spiritual depth out of it than just painful techniques!

@@BrightonAikikai sir Steven Seagal is also best practitioner ..I think it's depend of individual...cause people don't focus in conditioning...first of all we have to so fast and strong together.like Steven Seagal ..how he parry and kinfe hand to throat and neck .and backfist to face and kick to stomach shinn and groin ..then he use aikido flow... cause morio oshiba was legend ..he did it best and I have seen in a video aikdio in Japan the grandmaster break many MMA folk ......so I think aikido is very effective ..but we have to make our body fast and strong and learn to strike while parry the attacks then use aikido flow....am I going in the good point sir?

Just a tip. Anything Jap style that has a DO prefix is Art oriented. Any that has a Jutsu prefix is application oriented. I won’t your intelligence so I will leave the application definition to yourself. The only clear advantage Aikido and Judo have many systems is there excellent break fall system that teaches the student to engage threat’s safely. Furthermore do not mistake the Jutsu prefix to the Brazilian Jui Jutsu which has nothing to do any Jap martial system.
