The Difference Between Basic Framework Aikido & Practical Use

- This video explains that aikido is taught in a basic format and then made into a combat realistic application style by practice and understanding the motion and how the technique works.
This is nearly the only channel that I know which maintains clarity on a critical point -- no technique will always work. The mechanics of a good technique operate to keep you safe even when you cannot follow through. Good boxing coaches understand this, but otherwise I've only found your channel (to which I have been subscribed a little while).
You should address relative speed in Aikido. It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on how to move your whole body into a certain position faster than the opponent can react. It is a common criticism of Aikido in particular that you must begin moving before the attack comes, and know what attack will be coming, in order for many of its techniques to work... and so anyone with a bit of basic knowledge on arm/wrist locks will just avoid all of your techniques. While I know these criticisms are unfair, they are rooted in a truth -- the arm moves faster than the body. It could be useful to address it.
Thank you for your subscription and your support. I appreciate your compliments.
I have touched on moving one's body in a way that is perceived faster than the attack. In reality, like every other art, it just takes practice with the intent to make it real. I will try to do a whole video on developing muscle memory and how to move the body as a single unit. In short, by training the body to move the appropriate foot and hand and the same time moves the body simultaneously.
The ability to see the opponent's attack just begins to happen over time (like any other art or sport). A batter perceives the ball and swings before he actually sees it. In part 1 of my mma series at time 9:12 I explain a bit of how to read the opponent. I hope this is helpful.
Good observation "only channel that I know which maintains clarity on a critical point -- no technique will always work."
Very good, showed the principle of non resistance. Also that Aikido in use like any other art looks different than training. Strange how critics will answer that what they do would look different on the street than the ring but then hold Aikido to its training regiment. Pressure testing comes up but if it's done correctly there is no resistance , push back , from the defender. Aikido training is pressure testing for dangerous techniques that would have to be practiced slowly and still altered to keep anyone from being seriously hurt. Ueshiba designed a training system that once people were trained could be practiced fast and hard , allowing the study and faster development of Aiki. Very good video
Thank you. I appreciate your support. I found aikido after years of striking training in various martial arts. Every art requires practice to make it functional and Aikido is no different. The reason I dedicated my time and effort to training aikido is because it works really well when done by someone who understands how to apply it. "Feeling is believing."
Excellent videos, thank you.
I think the most Aikido-way is your calm explanation of the techniques! And i mean this as a compliment, because i really appreciate your good work! You have a new subscriber! Greetings from Northern-Germany!
Daniel Ude thank you for your encouragement.
thank you.. this is awesome stuff
Thank you.
Could you show what options aikido would have after clinching a boxer? I have some ideas but would be interesting to see what you say?
Totally agree. The Aiki road is long as you know. The negative attitudes and comments about its practical applications come from people who want to train in “fast food” martial arts. They want to be able to break a bone after a couple weeks or months of training. My Sensei always reminded us that in Aikido the real practical nature of the techniques are fine tuned once you’ve made black belt. Not to say that until then you can’t defend yourself, it just takes that long to ensure the seriousness of a student’s pursuit before they can be trusted with the really devastating applications of the form.
I really appreciate you saying this. It’s refreshing to hear!
I love Aikido and will for life. Comprehending the truth from Aikido seems to be beyond most persons ability. I guess I'm ok with that. It does kind of help because an Aikidoist will most likely be looked at in a light of being unable to truely defend themselves, advantage Aikidoist.
Thanks for the "real" application of Aikido against "real" attacks, and not just pretty dojo kata practice with no "pressure/resistance" training. In a street situation rarely does the attacker, uke, just leave it "out there" and nicely "go with it." BTW: who was your Sensei and what Aikido style did he/she affiliate with?
Thank you for the compliment. I have several videos where I talk about different ways the Uke’s recoil is what makes the technique work.
I am affiliated with the World Aikikai. I am a member of Aikido World Alliance under Andrew Sato Shihan.
I have studied various martial arts for more than 30 years. I did combative striking arts for many years before finding aikido. I also have a bit of sword and other weapons training. I have had several aikido instructors. I lean very heavily in the direction of training in such a way as to make martial arts practical.
Good video. I respectfully think tho that as u are blending with an experienced striker's right jab/cross he will be feeding u a left then followed by close range knees. Hence, I still have serious concerns about aikido
BF NEW thank you for the positive comment. As I say in my videos, everything is situational regarding particular defensive position, etc. the point I am trying to make in this video is that the mechanical levers are built into the movement in case it needs to be forced.
Very well explained...and really nice looking mats..where can one buy those?
Thank you for the compliment.
The mats came from Zebra. They’re interlocking puzzle mats.
Ueshiba is turning in his tomb
Tenkan or Henka? Or may be a full Tai-Sabaki?
you can say that he same about shotokan clasical work vstrality.
Idc what anyone says. I’ve been doing Aikido for going on 15yrs the art when practiced correctly with Atemi the way O’Sensei originally taught it assuming the practitioners level of understanding and application knowledge is high enough works almost too well in a street situation. Especially when you combine it with other martial arts to really add to the overall toolbox. I don’t know why people are so obsessed with combat sports I’ve never once seen or been involved in any street or bar room brawl that ever even remotely resembles 2 highly trained MMA fighters squaring off in an octagon. I’m sorry but that is just not the reality of violence outside a fixed rules competition. I understand the necessity of using a combat sport training methodology at times so you can get use to dealing with live energy (sparing) Hence the reason I feel it’s necessary to supplement your Aikido with something like Judo, BJJ and/or Karate any strike based system really to really round out the skill set and most importantly MINDSET to deal with someone outside the dojo. One final note the argument of Aikido not working against a skilled striker or grappler again doesn’t hold as much water as the detractors of the art want to make people think it does. What are the real odds you’ll be running into someone that is legitimately skilled in other martial arts and wants to pick a fight with you?? Seriously?? You’d have better luck playing the lottery or being eaten by a shark people. My point at the end of the day is train your ass off under a quality instructor you maybe surprised what you can take from Aikido and make it useful for you given enough diligent study.
PARR53 I really like your rant😃 I completely agree!
My overall goal for this video was to demonstrate how moving with the recoil actually makes things easier and how there are built-in levers in place that help the technique work anyway (as long as nage is in the right place).
The filipino kali response with atemi is better and then apply the aikido techniques. You can swirl with a boxer. Mma has proven that
*cant swirl
I've always believed aikido is decent against an unskilled attacker. when i tried to use aikido in jiu jitsu grappling many years ago, none of it worked. however, i found my wrestling background was a huge help in taking people to the ground from standing. with punching, i've done boxing for many years. the aikido defenses to a karate style punch are no help to me. i'm pretty sure i could punch most aikido dudes pretty quickly and easily. i keep an open mind that there might be some aikido folks who are very skilled/fast/athletic and able to use it well. however, i figure most aikido only folks would get beaten up by someone with decent skill in boxing, kickboxing, jiu jitsu, etc.
At this moment I am busy teaching myself forex trading. It is extremely difficult and I fail a lot more often than I succeed. Does that mean that it is impossible to become a profitable trader? Not at all. It just means that my skill level is not at a suitable level yet. I have not practiced enough and do not understand the deeper meanings of the market patterns yet. Does it mean that I will give up? Not at all. I can see my current limitations and what I need to do to set things right. Same applies to Aikido or anything that is difficult really. If you wish to succeed in life you have to put in the hard work. It also sounds like you tried to force your techniques on your opponents. Even if you were to switch to judo you would still have little success with that kind of mindset.
The "likes" do not add
Americans like too much talk
I took Aikido for 3 years which was the biggest waist of time. Sorry, but Aikido is just a choreographed dance that is ineffective.
I’m terribly sorry you feel that way. I’ve employed aikido in real life on more than one occasion and it worked like a beast. There are some very soft schools out there but the technique is often still good. You may need to practice with real application and intensity in mind and not simply go through motions. I’ve been fortunate to have the instructors I’ve had. The more videos I make the more I hear from people who have only attended schools who leave out application all together. I am continually surprised by ranking aikidoka who have never been taught (hence do not teach) how to think and respond to a full speed, actual attack.
Aikido actually works very well and I am sorry if your experience did not seem beneficial for you. Thank you for watching my videos. I hope they help you.
@@aiki-fitlife6446 If it works so well, why do you not enter any MMA tournaments, or visit schools of other styles to see if this art is truly effective? There's a great documentary about an Aikido practitioner who does this and finds out how ineffective this art really is. There are countless other videos of Aikido practitioners getting manhandled when going up against a wrestler, Judoka, or BJJ practitioner. I will admit, there are one or two effective throws and wrist locks but they appear to be derived from Judo/BJJ techniques.
Thank you for your interest. Aikido, judo and BJJ all were derived from Japanese jujitsu. Aikido predates BJJ and focused on remaining standing while BJJ focused mostly on ground control.
I studied striking arts for many years before an aikido instructor threw me to the floor repeatedly without me being able to punch or kick him. I’m pretty fast so it really impressed me. He made it seem effortless and I wanted to learn that!
I have sparred with other styles as well as fought people in real fights in the real world. I have found that aikido gives a huge advantage. I’m not saying anything against other styles in any way, I am simply saying that when practiced effectively ... aikido works well.
@@aiki-fitlife6446 I still did not hear your take on why practitioners of Aikido do not enter any type of tournaments to test their skills against other disciplines or other schools that teach Aikido. Please let me know the next time you are doing a seminar or where you teach so I can come see and experience Aikido performed against an actual attack.
Matt Williams as an art, aikido does not hold tournaments or competitions. This is a constant source of unrest among aikidoka and other arts. You can find me at aikifitlife.com
You are welcome to visit my school where we can discuss the differences between styles and take a look at some things.😃
