I have studied Aikido for 5 years and have watched hundreds of videos. The techniques demonstrated in these Real Aikido videos are certainly among the best however, the level of pain the Uke's seem to be experiencing is ridiculous. I see no benefit to pushing pain to a severe level in demonstration or practice. It does no one any good if your training partner gets damaged in the process of learning. If the indication of pain which the Sensei is ignoring is just for show, it is just as unnecessary.

Fast technique doesn't necessarily equate to quality technique. If balance is taken sooner, speed isn't as necessary.
