Rob John on Aunkai: What Is Internal Skill

Where Waleed talks to Rob John about why aiki descriptions are so annoying, differences he sees between chinese internal skills and japanese internal skills, internal power vs. internal skill, what is a bujustsu body, connection, force vectors, alignment, balance, possibly why Mifune's Judo is so beautiful, central equilibrium, standing on one point.
Robert John is Senior Student under Akuzawa Minoru, founder of the Aunkai.
Aunkai is a Japanese internal martial art utilizing training concepts from the koryu, but implemented in a modern system.
Robert's personal interests are in finding the crossover of elite sports training with traditional training methods, especially with regards to fascial and neurological training methods. His pet peeve is hearing how Sports Training is completely different from "Traditional" training - and vice versa.
