[1bkenny]

Fantastic!!!

[plantolive]

I would trust this man to teach me some useful skills. I'm not knowledgeable in the art, philosophy, traditions or culture of martial arts, but I can imagine that some folks would get quite caught up in paying homage to the art, rather than extracting from it only what is practical and effective. This guy has an attitude and delivery that would fill me with confidence in his instruction.

Very good video!! I train in Dog Aikido as tradintional Ki Aikidoan would say and we train the same way... what works on the street

[stompySharpNpointy]

the attacker here isnt stiff arming him if that happens add a shin kick will make him pay attn to the pain in his leg and he will loosen the stiff arm enough to let him do the lock

[donmegahole]

when your running out of breath in your demonstration you might be talking too much! Im not here to argue, Im here to say shut ur mouth!

[Ittendojo]

I don't wish to disrespect Mike Janich, I'm sure he is a very competent Knife instructor but what he is showing here is basic training in Aikido, but does not offer a goshin jutsu approach. How to enter to apply these techniques, how to use center and body mass, how to adhere to the opponents body rather than seeking a technique. Maybe in the rest of the DVD he shows this, I do not know. There is no quick fix in learning these techniques, I have spent 20 years in Aikido and more than 30 in MA.

[kravmagadave]

This video is awesome, best one I've come across

[quik876]

Very much in the vein of Hapkido, stripping down to the essentials to obtain the desired effect, great view of concepts too. Awesome.

[Sharkman3472]

Mike Janich always has awesome material! He takes old school moves and just makes them easier and more effective. His Martial Blade Concepts by the way is sweet as hell too!

[drhf1001]

That was great!! Easy to understand and watch. I did spot some ways to improve though

You can get added force in locks if you grip with your little figure 100%, next 80% etc. Your thumb and index finger don't need to actively grip. By manipulating the angle of the thumb in relation to the lock, ie, turning from 90 degrees inwards to pointing forward (Sankajo), force is greatly increased. Also locks increase in power by pushing with the back foot off the ground. This also stops uke recovering.
