How to put on and tie a Hakama (Aikido) - 3 ways, very detailed (w/ subtitles)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 апр 2016
- Here's the direct links to each method:
First method (front folded into the belt): 0:33
Second method (more traditional): 3:24
Third method (front strap over the koshiita): 5:40
In our first "How To" video, we will explain 3 different ways of putting on and tying a Hakama for Aikido.
Those 3 methods could also be applied in some ways to Iaido, Kendo and of course, any Jujutsu-like art that uses a classic Judo type black belt.
Those methods are, however, not suitable for wearing a Hakama at a formal occasion.
The first method presented is the one used by Seido's founder Jordy. With this method, the Hakama should stay in place. The second method, is the most common in Aikido. The third one is very less common but is very likely the best method, if your Hakama doesn't stay in place during practice when using the other two methods.
There is no "best", "official" or "standard" method in Aikido (unless your group/dojo has its own rule of course), so we are just presenting those methods as tips to help you find a way to tie your Hakama.
If your teacher recommends another technique or if you have your own (better) idea how to do it, don't hesitate to leave a comment and give us some insights !
Presented by Seido's founder, Jordy Delage.

Domo. Just brought my first Hakama. Much deep tradition. Oss.
Excellent!! Many thanks for this detailed help and all the invested time to do it!
Fantastic video! My first day with Hakama is tomorrow! I'll try the last method first as it seems the most secure.
Western Japan way: Start with the back, with the straps going through the belt and tied under the front of the belt. Then do the front part as usual. Straps end up going over the koshiita, of course.
THANKS!you've saved me :'D
Bonjour, cette vidéo est très bien faite et très explicite. Merci à Seido en tant que Gohaï cela est très utile pour s'exercer.
merci mon amis, hugs from Spain :)
Gracias!
I wonder how many techniques are there to tie a hakama. I learned a variation of your 3rd version and always finished with the bow you showed.
thanks its a big help, i follow your method when i was promoted to black belt
Excelente!...
I make Walfas panels and my OC wears a Hakama. I love Aikido too, the Budo of my country. Greetings from Hachioji!
Greetings from Wako !
Seido Co., Ltd & BudoExport - Budo Equipment & Practice in Japan Does this channel have self-defense techniques?
Not really.
Our channel is developed on three different aspects.
First, we document Budo events in Japan. All Japan Aikido demonstrations, Kobudo demonstrations, etc.
Second, we document Japanese craftsmanship in relation to our products, as we only offer 100% handmade in Japan products.
And finally, we do "how to videos" related to our products. As this one.
So, you can of course find some demonstration videos that show techniques that can be seen as self defense, but we do not publish technical videos, only demonstrations.
If you like Japanese craftsmanship, you'll find some very nice interviews with admirable people though.
Seido Co., Ltd & BudoExport - Budo Equipment & Practice in Japan Thank you. I'll watch more of your videos!
Thanks!
This is an excellent instructional video. I only ever did it the "traditional" way (number 2) in the past. I'm going to give front folded in to belt to see how it goes for me. I've seen others in my classes using the third way but I prefer the aesthetics.
Thanks for your comment!
All the best on the mats.
merci
my solution :) i cut the front ones so it s short and sawed the pieces to the back ones making them longer so it can wrap around one more time... no way to tell once all tied anyway and it never moves... i do get looks when putting it on lol.
Merci!
Bien entendu, avec plaisir. Cette vidéo est faite pour tous les pratiquants. Et il y en aura d'autre :)
а если пояса нет?
как тогда завязывать?
Mes excuses. l'image du hakama noire avec le fond noir, l 'image sur la vidéo est difficile à visualiser. ..?!.Merci.
Great video.
+Neil Hamilton Thank you !

thanks for the video!
is that c418 playing in background? :)
You're welcome :)
No, it's not c418. It's from RUclips's licence free database music.
Sorry did you talk in the support into the belt the back support?
Thenx
How wear/tie the hakama for a woman?
Merci :)
Thnx
tôi đến với videp này vì muốn tìm hiểu về Hakama trong Inujasha!
Interesting how different a Aikido Hakama is to a Kendo Hakama
Dear Seido, I can't add translation for this video. Could you please help to check?
Thanks,
Hi,
I assume it's you that translated the other one. Thank you very much, it's much appreciated !
I have unlock collaborative subtitles for this one as well so you can move on!
I"m very appreciated your work. I will translate your clip into Vietnamese as much as I can.
c cool, merci ^^
+Koku Ryū Avec plaisir !
Forgive my ignorance but I can't help but thinking how one can move in this apparel...
Pretty well actually.
ruclips.net/video/vfa_yAdd5G4/видео.html
It, somehow, forces to have a very specific footwork that is consistent with Japanese traditional martial arts, and especially with Sword related techniques.
helpful !! thanks
Would different ways of tying the Hakama require different lengths of Hakama or straps, or are differences too small?
Quite small actually.
If you do the traditionnal knot (no matter how you tie the Hakama, just the knot) then you'll need a little more straps to do it.
Otherwise, the way that goes over the koshiita probably takes 10 cm longer, not more.
It's interesting to see the modern Aikido trainers change the idea about the treatment for their suit.
It's not just the right or wrong issue.
The ways which were adapted to use, all have the contexts in history.
But through the video, a beginner can only know several ways to wear their hakama.
They won't understand the contexts mean.
I believe you, as an important Aikido media in the world, may provide with a better solution than this video to promote the knowledge about Japanese suit.
For Iaido part, I am sure that they won't wear the shorter hakama just because they need to stand from a kneeling position.
"Modern Aikido practitioners", can you be more specific about this?
I mean, I also present the method that the founder used, so... I wouldn't call it modern.
And you know, those "tricky methods" were used during the founder's time as well, so... again... nothing modern here.
You're taking this video for what it is not. Just a few tricks to help people having more comfort in their practice. I'm not promoting/exposing any knowledge here, just making life easier for people struggling with their Hakama.
If you want history, you can go
here: aikidojournal.com/2019/04/30/hakama-101/
Or here: www.seidoshop.com/blogs/the-seido-blog/43-the-hakama-is-not-meant-to-hide-the-footwork
The second one will, of course, prove your last point false. Because yes, many Iaidoka also wear their Hakama way too long to look cool. Be it because they need to stand from a kneeling position specifically, or more generally, be able to move as freely as possible, despite the Hakama.
As I say, I'm totally cool with this. As far as people know why they're doing what they're doing... and as far as educational videos such as this one don't try to legitimate their point with reinterpreted history (which is, of course, absolutely not what we're doing here).
During the founder's time, there is no such an influential media to spread knowledge.
Not matter the habit is good or bad, all the habits will only be contained in the dojo.
Till now, the modern trainers have more and more tunnels to gain the information about Aikido, but most of them have no ability to figure out the information is good or bad.
Those habits which used to be seen unformal, are considered the natural way.
And through the convenient channels, those habits are spread out all over the world.
All things get interesting from here.
I can't agree with the opinion that everything happened in Hombu Dojo is right.
I truly wish your channel will become a more objective media to influence the modern Aikido trainers.
@@IkerMaTW Hum, that's a way of seeing it.
There wasn't much media during the founder's time, and during a long time, people only knew about (mis)interpretation of their teachers.
But we still have videos, recordings, personal notes from his students... and I believe that we've set the records straight on many topics the past few years, through Aikido Journal, with Guillaume Erard, and many more. You may not appreciate this video, but check out our channel and our collaborations, you'll see that we've set the records straight on many many topics, much more than the vast majority of Aikidoists ever tried to, and often against the will of some more or less official figures who were not very happy with our research.
I wouldn't be so categoric about formal and informal.
Contrary to most Kobudo/Kobujutsu, Budo are very malleable entities that evolve very fast. It's not a matter of good or bad, but it is what it is.
The traditions that did not evolve with their time just died out, and the vast majority of Kobudo is dying out for this very reason.
Budo are flourishing everywhere in the world, because they evolved.
For example, aikido was never meant to be a self-defense, it wasn't designed for it. Yet, Aikido as self-defense is quite popular in some countries, the US specifically. That's because it is relevant to their everyday life. This aspect is less popular in Europe because less relevant, and absolutely ignored in Japan because absolutely not relevant to modern Japan's life.
Is it good from a historical perspective? Probably not.
Does it contribute to making the world a better place? Probably, in most cases.
I'm good with all this. As far as people are not trying to sell something for what it is not.
Does it mean we should accept everything and never correct people? Surely not, of course, or I wouldn't spend most of my free time working on historical research. But in the end, we make things accessible, people are free to search for it and take it if they want to. If they don't, but still practice sincerely, no matter how, I don't care.
Alex Bennett puts it very well, here: ruclips.net/video/ftO3eg2Ev3s/видео.html
or here ruclips.net/video/Cjy-v5MXdiM/видео.html
For example.
PS: But yes, I agree, not everything that happened at the Hombu Dojo was good. Not everything was bad though. It's how it is, things change.
Do the aikido hakama may have the hera (hakama dome)? How could that help the hakama wearing?
In option yes, it's possible directly from our website.
We don't recommend it though, it might be dangerous if it moves during Ukemi.
super accent (ironie) mais le principal est que la video est parfaite !! merci de ton aide et bonne continuation !
What do I do, if I am too big, do do the stribes more then one time around me?
Custom made!

I bought a hakama on amazon and the front doesn't have any fold its just flat?????
Well, it would be either a Nobakama (which has 3 folds at the top, but no on the entire front), or not a Hakama at all.
I asked my father and he confirmed it was a Nobakama, thanks for the help.
It’s is and art. JYST to tie and wear a Hakama.
What if you need to pee real bad?
The hakama sits roughly above the waistband of your pants. You should be able to get your drawers opened and either whip it out one side of the hakama or draw the leg up and over.
I'd be more worried about a bowel movement though 😅
I don't know anyone whose hakama has long enough straps to cross 2 times in back, then tie off at the front.
That's probably because you wear an Iaido model which has shorter long straps designed to be tied on the back. If you practice Aikido, you should try a Hakama designed for Aikido, it's way more comfortable.
I will look for one as my hakama is becoming worn. Everything sold for Aikido in the U.S. seems to be this style. I will look at your website. Thank you.
Yeah, that's not unusual. It's pretty much the same everywhere. Since Iaido/Kendo Hakama are way cheaper than Aikido Hakama, most retailers (90% I would say) sell those Hakama for Aikido, but it's quite wrong, especially because of the hard Koshiita that may be dangerous when taking ukemi.
Anyway, have a look to what we offer, and feel free to ask if you have any question.
All th best on the mats !

Oui enfin c'est une façon de faire et ce n'est pas la manière traditionnelle...
Je reformule mon commentaire qui j'ai écrit un peux précipitamment...
Dans l'école d'aïkido ou je pratique nous portons le Hakama avec un obi et non une ceinture nous le portons avec le noeud dit "traditionnelle" un peux comme le dernier que vous faite.
P.S: désolé pour le premier commentaire...
Pas de problème. Cela étant dit, ce n'est pas mentionné mais il existe d'autres nœud traditionnels pour le Hakama. Celui montré en fin de vidéo n'est qu'une possibilité parmi d'autres, plus répandue dans le milieu des arts martiaux (c'est pour cela qu'elle est dans la vidéo).
I'm so frustrated😂
