Aikido Master Morihei Ueshiba: "Highlights of "Takemusu Aiki" (1952-1958)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 дек 2012
- From 1942 to 1955, Aikido Founder Morihei Ueshiba spent most of his time in his country home with attached dojo in Iwama, Ibaragi Preference. During and immediately after the war, he had for the first time in years the opportunity to devote himself to personal training and meditation. It was in this isolated village, far from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo, that Morihei formulated the concept of "Takemusu Aiki." This was an expression an ideal of the highest level of aikido where techniques perfectly suited to the situation are born spontaneously. In these highlights from films from this era, you will see the Founder's aikido at its finest.

Morihei is the master of the martial master of all time! His life was amazing and very inspirational !
This man makes me smile...
This is just the _Spirit_ we (the humans) need to cultivate today Worldwide ' There are no strangers or borders... O'Sensei Morihei Ueshiba's Art of Peace. AIKIDO '☮️
I have once again been humbled. I only recently had an awakening to the concept that the practice of Aikido is very much about the "Relationship" Between Nage and Uke. This seemed a very ground-shaking message that I have preached eagerly, and have seen it improve my Aikido and the Aikido of those with which I train.
...And then I looked up "Takemusu" to find that, of course, O'Sensei was way, way ahead of me. 20 years into training, I'm ready to begin my study of Takemusu Aikido.
@Jimmy Jazz or anyone that doesn't play make believe when they train..this isn't even a martial art. It's completely fake
What's takemuso ?
@Jimmy Jazz missing the whole point of aikido
This is what is so astounding about Aikido for me, that O'sensei created a martial art that promotes peace and non-violence, it seems like a contradiction in terms and thats why so many people just dont get it. For 99% of guys who practice all the other martial arts, its all about competition, individualism, self-preservation and violence. Name another martial art in this world that promotes love and respect as Aikido does you wont find one.
i respect your opinion
because it is true
but I do prefere practicing fighting sports than Martial arts
I almost fully agree with you, but...Have a look at Tetsudo (Tibetan form) which aims at improving oneself, not only to become physically fit, but rather to become a fully rounded personality. "Eveything in life exists in a state of duality. You cannot have light without darkness, a left without a right, an high without a low...You cannot become truly powerful until you have learnt to be truly gentle" - Master Tambo Tetsura.
Adoro praticar aikido, a cada dia é mais praseiroso .
これからもがんばります🙇
He knocks them down so casually and with no effort like wow
Respect Forever!
Morihei Ueshiba o mas conocido como O' sensei fue el fundador del arte marcial Japones #aikido
Ueshiba no compartía la filosofía de muchos senseis que abogaban por violencia en sus combates. Él mas bien prefería mezclar su técnica con la naturaleza y hacer de ella algo con la cual se evitaran las peleas y se encontrara la paz y amor..
En fin, Aikido es letal si se usa con el fin de violencia.
قلبي يتقطع لما اشوف شخص يمارس الايكيدو وانا لا. اموت😭😢😢
every time, it's pleasure
My spiritual nether-realm Vu-Ja-De has been awakened. You are the center.
I'm intrigued by the story of O Sensei's demo with then Attorney General Robert Kennedy's protection detail in the early 60s, which took place in Japan. Legend has it that O Sensei tossed him or them around like rag dolls!
By "him", I'm obviously not referring to the late Attorney General, but to his protection agent(s).
+LarryRickenbacker That wasn't O' Sensei, that was Gozo Shioda, one of O' sensei students. You can watch the video of him and the Kennedy's bodyguard here in youtube.
Yes; you are correct. I knew it was Gozo Shioda and somehow typed in the incorrect name, anyway. Fantastic demo.
I thought it was Koichi Tohei.
That was Gozo Shioda. O-Sensei died in 1969.
Any real master of aikido knows in a real fight if the opponents don't go with the flow that they are being driven ,,,the opponents joints will break or snap,and the fight is over,
sleepercellinck I took 2 classes at uni, these dudes threw me across the room like I was a rag doll. One teacher stood his ground, sent his Chi through the floor, I felt like I got struck by lightning.
There is something deeply spiritual about this practice that most can’t comprehend. I’ve experienced it and I still can’t explain with “modern” words what it was that actually happened but they kicked all of our asses and I wouldn’t want to see them in a real fight!
thank u
You mean thank you.
There are sooo many demonstrations. Where are the REAL LIFE APPLICATIONS?
Its not that its fake, its just that at times it shouldn't work based on wrong timing or improper grip from the attacker in terms of the technique being shown. The case you have mentioned is most likely one of those techniques that kinda didnt go quite right at the time, but the fundamental idea still holds integrity. I wouldnt judge a martial art without first giving it a shot on the mats, its like saying you dont like eating something when you havent even tasted the food yet.
the role of Aiki is to banish conflict? What does that mean? It means one force is never met with an opposable force - the principle if ying and yang. Aikido is not about fighting but developing this concept of opposable forces - ying and yang. When people say "Aikido could never win in a real fight!" they reveal their ignorance and should go back to punching and kicking each other in the head for sport as you will never be enlightened to what is so enriching in the Universe.
Matthew M Yin & yang are polar opposites; hot/cold, soft/hard etc. Ch'i simply means "energy" (of which there's many forms). How is any of that "bullshit"? Consider this: Karate schools hand out black belts in average of four years. That art is primarily about physics. In Chinese soft internal energetic arts, in which one is barely scratching the surface in four years, they don't need to keep striking makiwaras and do knuckle pushups or whatever to develop huge callous and toughen the hand. They don't need to. They use energy, and can break stone by merely touching it. They can do so with without the golf-ball knuckles. My sifu demonstrates energy by having two students push a sharp steel head spear into the hollow above the chest, at the base of the windpipe. No muscle can grow there, no callous. It's thin skin with delicate windpipe under it. The wooden spear shaft bends then snaps. The point doesn't penetrate. He can have a bat broken over the same spot. Takes work though. Hard work (which incidentally translates to "K'ung-fu".. Which is why you see far more Karate schools in American cities than the soft/internal ones, because the overwhelming majority of Americans don't have the patience and dedication required.
Matthew M ..and Taoism is not a religion in the sense you are familiar with; there's no personified dieties or Machievellian butt-kissing. It's about natural laws. Not gods or guilt or sin or any of THAT bullshit which fucks heads up.
I guarantee you any of the women in my class would make dogmeat out of you.
Matthew M -dude just shut your ass up lol..you make yourself look stupid
+Matthew M I think you almost got it right. It is definitely not fighting, as it is closer to Tai Chi Chuan than Kung Fu for instance. In fact, in Aikido there's probably more emphasis on falling than hitting someone - and trust me, letting yourself be thrown without effort on the other part is not easy! It's the art of harmony, it does, for instance, fit with Bruce Lee's philosophy in the sense that you learn Aikido in order to express yourself through your body. Of course you can express anger, or whatever it is with the principles of other marcial arts , but Aikido means expressing harmony, therefore as you make your move you are feeling the other and as he falls he is feeling you, there's no difference between the two, there's no effort at all. That's why you see these pictures and you think it's funny - if they were all beginners you would see someone punch the old man in the face, and also the old man grabbing someone and applying enough pressure to hurt - but when it comes to experienced practitioners, it is not about effectiveness or damage, it is just about letting go and flowing, it is supposed to be "play along" but with intention and emotion - and understand that some people can't do that! My Sensei said on my first lesson - "If you ever get into a fight you are not learning Aikido properly". And by the way, I'm no black belt, I've only been to a couple of lessons and let me tell you - it is nothing like when I used to train boxing. Before, I would run into a smelly gym, with people all stressed out wanting to vent whatever frustration they have on you, hurt myself and learn nothing about respect, there was no confidence but only cockyness - now, I get to the dojo at 5:40 am, everybody is chilling, smiling and quiet, they all say hi to each other and shake hands, every body is teaching everybody something, and when we leave we have more energy than before. Aikido is peace brother, not war.
from what I understand and yes it can be hard to do if you take a person's hand to their center line and break posture it will work. this is something I am working on now. hopefully I will understand it one day with out using atemi.
Why is it so hard for people to believe in a martial art they have never experienced. There is nothing magical about aikido. It is timing and accuracy. It is knowing what angle to use to counter the attackers motion. When viewed as such, is it so difficult to believe. This video isn't showing "if attacked like this, do this"... it simply shows one possible reaction to one possible action. As one who has studied several martial arts I can say that I've learned to do things I wouldn't have thought possible. For example, pressure point manipulation learned in Kuk Sool Won.
Sadly, there is no predictable opening in real fight. Even in street fight aikido will completely useless
@Vui Programmer it is effective against somebody who don't know how to fight. Even most basic boxing skills will be very effective against those who don't know how to fight.
But in higher level of combat or in elite level of combat sport, somebody can't rely on just one particular discipline. There is more complex things not just swinging wildly and give your opponent wide opening.
@Tai Chi Tube yes and that's why aikido is not suitable for all kind of people and all kind of situation. Not everyone will dedicated his life just to learning a martial arts tho
@Tai Chi Tube NOBODY!
@Giovanni DeBravo Why is it bullshido? Why have police & prison guards around the world been mislead for 5+ decades? Why are there MMA fighters and trainers that incorporate various aspects of aikido into their training? Or does calling it "bullshido" make it easier for you to simply not have to think?
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He seems like an amazing human but these attackers are under a spell cast by his strength of personality. I would like to try and distill the essence of these techniques into something useable today though still.
it's there, everyday in Aikido dojos. Moreover, I did another kind of distillation, giving a mathematical form to Aikido moves: 'Aikido and Physics: an exercise in relativity'
Even as an Aikidoka, my first question about an interaction on the mat is "does it work?" And, by that question I mean, "If this had been a real, defensive situation, would you still be alive?"
If the answer is yes, then the deeper mysteries of Aikido can be considered. If the answer is no, then what you practice may be a means to living a happier life but it is not a martial art and should not be advertised as such.
Teach that your students may survive to become old and wise.
This can be applied to all arts. Everything has an aspect that can work and such can also meet limitations. The real filter is the student’s own purpose. If your looking for what works in a “defensive” situation my question is how did you find yourself in that situation in the first place? The survival mindset creates a survival reality. IMHO a knife and gun wielded by disciplined training and violent intentions will fall most attacks and negate the context of defense by many arts. Some say the highest martial art principle is to win without fighting, how efficient would survival be if one never has to exercise defense at all? But most unhealthy egos do look for a fight, are ignorant of pre-event signals or are insecure enough to be taunted. In a violent encounters within a modern civilized society nobody comes out unscathed, attacker or defender, whether by law or by limb - no winners in a fight. So what works? The problem is not the art, it is the student, or worse the teacher. Seek to survive and your path will repeatedly bring you to fend for your life, seek to defend and you will encounter offense, seek peace…..maybe one will find that. The sword remains sheathed, the gun remains holstered, no widow no fatherless child. The full circle of war is peace, but a long journey it is.
also this is it in real time, ruclips.net/video/wSgiKehbIW8/видео.html.
Morihei Ueshiba in his prime was untouchable, he had mastered his physical movements by mastering his mental. Sure at this point he's very old and his students are not very well trained or masters of anything so they may be going easy or may just not be a challenge for him, but you have to think he was very old he ended up dying of cancer. I read 2 men would have to carry him to the mats and once he got to the mats he would become very alert and still was nearly untouchable. Read up on him there are many accounts of essentially miracles he performed, dodging bullets, several police men he was training or demonstrating to one day said they all piled up on him he was soft as silk and then all of a sudden he flung them all off they said he became like stone in an instant.
So what Takemusu Aiki means?
I search for bullshido and this come out 😅
The guy in the introduction was too much lol
Only people who have done aikido will understand how deadly this is.
@Alvaro Buendia cuz you are not even a master lol
I did it and it's bullshido.
O’ Sensei
BASIC SELF DEFENSE RITES (24/7 maintained is a good plan to ensure reflex reactions are sure)
1) AIKIDO STANCE / AIKIDO WALK with evasive movements at interactive times. Dancing almost. To quickly swivel and move off to the side, in respect of the person before you, or the elderly person whom you suddenly almost bump into, so your AIKIDO movements 24/7 achieve a better ongoing boundary at all times. Inside, out side, seems like you can get punched in the face going inside too much in AIKIDO if you aren’t a master of physical movements and grabs, etc... Circular, circular, over and over is truest AIKIDO in the take down pin. That has been getting lazy and straight lined instead of spin, spin, over and over in the take down pin and redirecting grabs represented in AIKIDO so common.
2) SITUATIONAL AWARENESS for 2 year olds onwards, what a difficult reality to be born into Creation’s Expanse. So many SITUATIONAL AWARENESS points of awareness to teach.
3) RECREATIONAL SELF DEFENSE
4) EDUCATIONAL SELF DEFENSE
5) MUSICAL & COMMUNICATED SELF DEFENSE
6) TAKEN OVER NATURAL COMMAND OF THE WORLD in 1 weekend of exposing my tragedy and overwhelming COINCIDENCES of such SUPERNATURAL promise with the suffer of LOTUS type unawareness some of the time I developed out of these tough conditions.
6) OPEN DOORS with your FINGER TIPS always.
7) RUN AROUND AND WALK AROUND LAKES that are the size of METEOR IMPACTS from tens of thousands of years ago. That belt between MARS & JUPITER is a safeguard & ideologically focuses us to send machines to protect and utilize that somehow, some not so far away time from now. SELF DEFENSE by having oversight somehow and redirecting from EUGENICS DECEPTIONS and 3 needless ARMAGEDDONS, instead we walk around a lake if we want to and see the size of an impact crater from a Meteor, this was a concept I had, similar to rites at MECCA is how I cherished this when I realized I was running 11km around a local lake like anyone could to visualize the importance of SELF DEFENSE & MECCA SAFETY ZONE & UNHR Dvine Natural Laws we know as instictive expecations to thrive and therefore Divine Law. Thi s is what just sort of happened to me, I realized this RITE of SELF DEFENSE to redirect GLOBAL CONFLICT towards managing space without forcing anyone aboard. Maybe stay on EARTH is the best path as I was reminded over and over as a child and youth with repetitive dreams of this KEY IMPORTANT FACT, STAY ON EARTH!!!!!!!!!!!
8) JEETKUNDO is also SUFISM/200BC JUDAISM in philosophy, DISCHORDIANISM practices by a CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGIST amateur even like me, you can change the world so easily, everyone is meant to lead. The disabled are reminders of trust, hope, inspiration, all are disabled in the world in some way or another it sure seems to me. Ego will be renamed and reshaped by some one to fit whatever needing claim over and over, twisting of context, and wasted time, time a wasted.

concordo com vc uma praticante de aikido sairia de um mata leao facilmente , nao esquecendo que a pessao oku eri jime e de 260 kilos .zaionara shomem

Not gonna lie, I knew him from meme
The Guy in the beginning is terrifying.
2 words, pain and gravity
AAAAAAAAAAAAAH HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH *DEEEEP INHALE!* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHA I CANT BRO I REALLY CANT HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAH OMG
People who have never experienced Aiki think it can't be that effective or real but its about making simple moves that will end the fight in the quickest way. Why kick you when I can hold you hostage by your over extended should and wrist? You don't have to do irreparable damage but you can if necessary to escape. It's a battle of wits more than strength.
you are right sir. some people who watch Aikido on screen do not believe how these soft and harmonic movements are effective against an attacker.Aikido aim is to protect yourself without violence.
You don't still believe this right?
Yea but these guys aren't really trying to attack him.
Im trening aikido
You mean training.
You cant judge Aikido because Aikido doesn't have any form, there is no comparison because there is no separation. The moment you conceptualise Aikido is when you create a divide between yourself and Aikido/others. The true understanding of Aikido is when you realise that Aikido is unification and equality. You cant have these qualities if you go around competing and judging.
2:18 Must have been a no-Gi Monday 😂😉
Compared to a river, someone here is as shallow as a rocky river. DO respect this Art, it's not just for fighting that this Martial Art exist until this very present time. If it's all fake, try to learn it for more than 10 years. This art exist long before you were born!!

Starts at 0:48
Don't mean to disrespect but seems highly impractical when this whole martial art seems to be based on fighting opponents that try to give you a handshake rather than kicking or punching
i can't believe that i used to find Morihei Ueshiba as the greatest warrior ever when i was learning Aikido... How could I have been so blind?
You have to train the basics at a basic level to learn grounding, timing etc. When you advance you deal with unorthodox attacks. Do you honestly think out of all the people who train aikido that none of them have tested it? Stuff on RUclips is for show mostly. Find some good ones by TAKN. It is not floaty fancy crap like ppl believe. It is martial and very effective when trained properly.
Like a men in black alien disguised as a human in the first bit.
That disgusting.

+Aikido Journal さん 1:25から1:45まで 植芝盛平大先生は元の日本語で何と仰ったのですか？
Spiritually there are no strangers or borders. Everything is part of the same family. The aim of Aiki is to banish fighting, warfare and violence.
I have now visited a few of these aikido tube videos in recent days., I don't know why but that has happened and it seems like a joke to compared to martial arts. Good laugh though to watch the 89 year old throwing 7 people at once with a smile on his face .
nice dance...
pretty dance!!
el shadai das artes marcias rsrsrsrs
I have already practiced aikido and I know that this level of form will not be reached today. In addition, an aikido practitioner cannot fight if he only practices aikido, as he has no idea what it means to be kicked or punched in real combat.
Just protect your joint if someone grab your hand
Payasada de teatro 😁
Aikido is a great dance! End of!!!
Is a martial art.
@@baotrannguyenngoc9964 is a martial tart!!!
Tart is a food.
What a good set of compliant students... (sigh).
Kimda cultish, no?
This is a perfect style of defense against opponents that are trying to give you a soft handshake and are willing ti jump into throws and go limp when you touch them, lol. Get real.
exception - once again confirms the rule that this species is good for physical development, but not for martial arts.
Aikido works until the practitioner gets punched in the face by a boxer or kicked to the head by a Muay Thai practitioner. Aikido may also work until the practitioner is taken down by a wrestler and ground-and-pounded or submitted by someone who knows BJJ.
😂😂😂

What does it mean ?
Good luck in a real fight
did you ever try?
@@paologustavo6664I did and it's bullshido.
Let's see if my Aikido won't work against you in a real street fight, oh & I'd advise you to gather up as many people you know as possible, you'll need them...
Now if you accept, you coming here, or am i coming to you.?
I understand now where steven sigal learned to fake
His last name is Seagal.
If the purpose is to avoid conflict why not learn and practice how to run to the opposite direction of the attackers. It is certainly easier to master than wristlock flip several dudes simultaneously in diffrent directions
Meu tio levou um soco na cara e desistiu de fazer o Aikido!
These are just show motion demonstrations people. This isn't the actual form during a fight. Get real. I know everyone likes to make fun of all martial arts and ride the Gracie Jiu Jitsu dick train, but there are other forms out there that will work just fine against 95 percent of the population. And this technique is one that instead of attaching you are constantly defending and basically redirecting the attackers OWN force and trajectory to turn it around on him and use his own body weight against him by grabbing and applying pressure on joints that make him submit, fall, it be forced to break a joint or a bone. Just because it seems silly in a demo doesn't mean it doesn't work. This is just to show you the idea of it. Much like Judo that is similar in reversing the attackers again and strength against him instead of exerting your strength on him. You use his energy and redirect the energy around you. Everyone internet black belt is on this videos disrespecting other people's martial art just because they watched 2 or 3 episodes of the UFC and just because they learned the words ArmBar and Rear Naked Choke now they're all professionals. Gtfoh and die respect to something that would hurt badly about 95 percent of you out there.
Jesus Christ YAHWEH
its not so deadly compare it with silat...
Silat is shit, bro. It's just a different kind of shit from aikido, but shit nonetheless.
Mouldy CPU u must try to sparing first
hamba Tuhan
I don't want to waste my time proving the obvious -- that silat is shit.
1:35 So the aim of aiki is to banish fighting. That means aikido was never meant for self defense in the first place. People who practice it for self defense are delusional.
Mouldy CPU the only way you can banish fighting is to defend against it with your ukey in mind
Right on - if you really practice Aikido you don't get into fights... you express harmony, period. It doesn't mean it can't be called self-defense - what does it mean anyway? To always be as safe as possible (Aikido) or in case you get yourself into an awfully difficult situation you are able to hurt at least one person really bad (JiuJitsu, Boxing...)? Plus, how can ANY martial art be effective today when anyone have access to a gun? I would dare to say Aikido is the best self-defense because you wouldn't get into a fight in the first place...
Казактарды тренероват етсе казагым таза далбаеб болатын шыгар
I believe sosai oyama said "the evidence is in the fighting" this guy is a fraud he has never fought a day in his life
This is not actually true. There are records and testimonials of Ueshiba being a bully in his younger days. Problem is, he created Aikido when he was older and soft, and thus the art of Aikido lacks real combat efficacy, being more of a healthy and spiritual activity like Yoga or Tai Chi.
Wow, some bigmouthed guy who doesnt understand what is evasion and direction change. Must be brute force type. Wonder which martial art he practice. Such a disgrace.
Amazing, looks even more fake than the current demonstrations. Guess the art 'matured' over the years.
