Aikijo no suburi

This is a demonstration of the twenty aikijō no suburi formulated by Morihiro Saito. The suburi represent core movements of the aikijō system practiced in Ueshiba O-Sensei's Iwama Dōjō. These short solo exercises will help you to develop confident handling of the jō or short staff. These movements commonly appear in partner practice so it is good to be well acquainted with them. As a solo practice you can develop coordination, dexterity, strength, balance and internal connections. All you need is a little time, a little space and a stick.
Please note, due to an editing error in the original, the last two suburi should read;
19 - 左流れ返し打ち Hidari nagare gaeshi uchi
20 - 右流れ返し突き Migi nagare gaeshi tsuki
岩間の合気杖の素振りの二十本
Alan Roberts studied with Saito Morihiro Shihan at the Iwama Dōjō from 1988 to 1993. He holds a 6th dan (Aikikai) and is the Chief Instructor of Aikido Auckland Seishinkan and Technical Director for Aikido Aotearoa New Zealand.

Awesome video! I will probably spend the rest of this year watching and practicing these moves!

[@Cellless_gd]

How is it going?

[@sidneyrobinson5344]

This is the essence of martial arts. Breaking it down to its simplicity. And it all moves from the underside of you feet. To the farthest end of your jo staff. And the pronunciation is as the word sounds.

Thank you for sharing this with us

[@LindaIG6KArt]

Thank you for sharing this. I have missed this so . My late husband Doc F. D. Hale was a shihan & he used to teach me basics in this before he passed away in 2019 . I will practice these for the rest of my days. . Domo Arigato >(^.^)

[@njschulze514]

I’m currently trying to build on my Jo foundation, and this has been such a helpful resource to drill the basics. Thank you so much!

[@donedeal725]

This content is undoubtedly priceless but as as someone barely initiated in the art I think a camera focusing on the footwork would be awesome.
We appreciate you sir, thank you.

19 would be hidari nagare Uchi,左流れ返し打ち。20 is migi nagare gaeshi tsuki右流れ返し突き

[@AikidoAuckland]

Yes, editing error. Thanks for paying close attention. 19 - Hidari nagare gaeshi uchi (左流れ返し打ち), 20 - Migi nagare gaeshi tsuki (右流れ返し突き)

[@frisbear]

There is one interesting idea that the legs should follow the weapon, and not the other way around.

[@medyou2815]

thank you for sharing

[@alannaharthurs9498]

This is very good! I am more of a visual learner however I am struggling with the pronunciation of the names. Would you be able to have someone saying the names in the video as the written words are shown? Or know of somewhere that can help with the auditory pronounciation of the names for additional learning?

[@GiC7]

Thank you

[@baronj4210]

all looks interesting, what is the staff made off that is does not brake easy, what happen if the oponent is not air, but a person grabing the staff, how do you prevent a grab?

[@AikidoAuckland]

The jō (staff) is made of Japanese white oak. It is quite resilient and can weather quite strong impacts but this is greatly improved by correct technique. These exercises are some of the basic skills of manipulating the jō, so they are, as you write, just movements in the air. Partnered practice better informs this practice. There are a series of techniques for dealing with an opponent grabbing the jō (jōnage waza) but the best thing, of course, would be to avoid this altogether.

[@fromramin]

Thank You very much for the wonderful and clean and sharp videos.
Is it possible to add kumi Tachi for Bokken and Jyo. Also 13 jyo kata, please!

[@ДмитрийЗло-м1и]

Вопросов стало только больше

[@JustMe-vz3wd]

Excellent. I would like to know if this is considered Iwama style, Aiki Jo from Saito sensei? If not who is the original source, which (Japanese) sensei? I ask because than i can search more of this particular style. (The Chiba style of the Jo i oddly find not wholly fitting in my aikido training...)

[@AikidoAuckland]

Yes, Roberts Sensei studied with Saito Morihiro Sensei in Iwama 1988-1993

[@JustMe-vz3wd]

Thanks for the reply. I just did read the description of this video.

[@pascal6607]

Merci .)

[@hana.s.5203]

Super, on voit beaucoup mieux la position des pieds et aussi celle des mains sur le Jo !

[@edlusin686]

Los nombres de los hidari están invertidos

[@AikidoAuckland]

Yes, an editing error well spotted. Names should be reversed for 19 and 20

[@allgood6760]
