  • Very good practical aikido good video

  • will this stuff help me in real life? not like that fake karate stuff where u end up getting ur behind kicked

  • Definitely See Sosa Sensei's Teaching in your teaching. Very Nice Sir! I have been able to find needs for that higher outside one too though . I hope this year to train some with you maybe if you will allow.

  • I always wanted to learn Aikido,but it looks to painful when practicing Martial Arts lol

  • @makuwalkbowlegg

    lols don't be mistaken, Learning these techniques, if done correctly, is not painful at all.

    Don't be scared to try this out, just don't do it with some scrub, or you'll really get hurt:P

    lols, i speak from experiance, i'm currently around 3rd kyu Akido :D just 2 years ago XP

  • That was sick wid it but don't dis Aikido it is a really good martial art

  • For the people who have said this technique doesn't work, i will make another quote of my sensei "reacting to a situation is only using a technique as it is graded, adapting is using the technique and shifting it to the situation." A lot of people don't understand that this technique can work against any punch, when is has been adapted for that punch

  • This looks incredibly effective against a lunatic with a knife as the stomach, mid-section is an easy target for a thrust. For a punch though, I don't see the point really. You'd be better off doing the same initial movement and deliver a nice left hook to the temple.

  • what if I cant do the kotegaeshi correctly because my opponent was making a fist all along when I tried it? or it doesnt make any difference?

  • @luison410 If you managed to get that far, just use your body weight to fold the fist unto itself.

  • @shihonage thanks :D

  • one word "kakoi"..hehe

  • if this is just to stop a strike, seems like a lot of moving. if it's to stop someone with a knife, than it seems worth it. i do shorin-ryu karate (im not very high ranking) but for strikes there are a lot easier ways to deal with them, and this move looks like it is based off of a straight punch, which street fighters are not known for, and most people throwing a straight punch (properly) wouldn't commit themselves to it so much, rendering this move a bit useless. but again, good knife self D.

  • @mikeymoughtin i do understand what you are talking about, but with aikido (and my sensei, not sure about other sensei's though), it's about adapting, not about reacting. My sensei said "reacting means that you are afraid and doing only instinct. Adapting means to use a technique learned, and shifting it to a certain situation." To put my own personal example, someone tried to beat me up in the street, they did haymakers, i blocked, came under his arm and then did this move, so i varied it.

  • @mikeymoughtin i do shotokan karate and they do teach us better movesthan that and the most thing they fucus on is how to defend your self in the street not turnements

  • @mikeymoughtin But knowing different styles on a whole is always good. I know aikido, karate, Brazilian jui jitsu and muay thai. I tell you knowledge of multiple arts is always good. When i lived in Arizona i had to deal with allot of street fights because of racism and me being not white and such. Sometimes aikido is the way to go for certain engagements. But thats just me. Thought i agree karate is much more straightforward. But its easily fallible to counters.

  • What if the uke has a knife... He would have cut nages throat with that (look 0:44 for instace)

  • @MultiKeimo He can't since the wrist is turned and the knife falls from his hand

  • @markilic people are different. I know that because I´m doing aikido. We have people on our club that nikyo is practically impossible to do, due to the fact that their nerves are not so sensitive than they should be. So in real situation you cannot presume that the knife automatically falls. But of course if you are high ranks enough you can make it fall... All i actually meant was that for his own safety nage´s should keep a safe distance to uke.

  • @MultiKeimo Well I train aikido as well, and I agree that distance should be kept. That's how we were taught. We do an ushiro tenkan when throwing, so it's practically impossible for them to swing.

  • @markilic I understand

  • To people who claimed that aikido is fake or useless, well, aikido basically is an art defense, a lot of the time you do not get the chance to use technique as we are always advised to run if we do not want to get involved in fights. I've join aikido and i can tell you that what they did in this video would surely break your wrist if you resist. Real fights are definitely more dynamic since both parties have the intention to hurt the others.

  • as possible and evade some more without trying to enter into the wrist locks and arm deflections. Aikido is about self enlightenment. It is a state of mind not to be confused with the need to prove you are a better fighter than the next man. The reason Aikido looks so soft in demonstrations is because the actual techniques will break bones and do serious damage as well as the over all goal of Aikido which is not to harm anyone if possible.

  • Most of you sadly do not have any clue what you are talking about. Aikido works. I have used it in real self defense situations. Others have. The issue is people always want to compare Aikido against MMA and we are dealing with apples and oranges. MMA is for people who like to fight. Aikido is the complete opposite. The technique shown in this video is effective given the right circumstance. The main goal of Aikido is to avoid the conflict. A real Aikido master or student would evade for as long

  • Oh My God. This is a license in how to get seriously beat up. I pity anyone that might have to rely on this information to protect themselves.

    One thing I can guarantee: Other than the ones he has likely dreamed up... This instructor has never been in a real fight in his entire life.

  • When I punch you, you won't have a chance in hell of doing tenkan out of the way.

  • aikido, and the ufc, those words havent ever been in the same sentence, mma called out all martial arts, looks like steven seagal didnt hera his phone haha, look i know you love it and its natural to defend it, but you and i both know this art is bs. it doesnt work at all, its obvious, one of these experts would be destroyed in secnds against a st pierre or anderson silva. if they are so good why do they only ever get seen being effective against another aikido guy. soap opera stuff

  • Comment removed

  • @thefiddlerz i have actually tried a technique like this i can assure u i am no actor nor can i fake anything i damn near broke my wrist dont diss an art without trying it sir

  • @thefiddlerz Why it seem that it only affect the other aikido guys is because we are taught the ways of proper falling and not to resist techniques. Try it out on strangers and you'll surely injured them because some people are stubborn and refuse to fall, that's why it might not seem effective on them.

  • and seriously, mc hammer wants his trousers back, ever wonder why mma fighters or the army dont wear dresses!? hahaa

  • @thefiddlerz Insert brain. Does your family have a history of mating with vegetables or something?

  • aikido is basically live action role play, its all choregraphed, its a joke, watch any ficht video an actual fight, its nothing like this, this doesnt work, in the ufc where are styles are allowed noone uses this shit as it doesnt work

  • @thefiddlerz If you think that this is choreographed, then I pity your ignorance. Had you even tried to do any of these moves with a partner before commenting, you would know that the people do the rolls and flips so that their bones aren't broken when they are twisted. Also, it's the body's self-defense mechanism that causes you to roll; I dare you to not roll if these techniques are used on you. By the way, learn the English language.

  • @thefiddlerz I agree - most of this shit is just that. But all of These techniques have their place - it is jus that real fighting is so much more dynamic. But even MMA does not allow many techniques to be employed - no neck, or spine techniques, no fine or ankle techniques ( see first mms tournament)

  • The Japanese are a very creative and intelligent people... We all have something to learn from them and this art is one of them!

  • awesome!!

  • I totally agree with Knight2321. And it also depends from the person. But Padus...Aikido doesn't only have 1 technique that you can do. If they throw you a head punch they will still know how to do another technique you smartass.

  • Lmao how they are arguing..

  • no art really is better than the other every art has flaws your asking a question only two extremely skilled fighters would be able to answer for you to deflect the speed of wing chun they would need to be very skilled but like i said no art is perfect.. they all lose to each other eventually so i dont knot know and frankly i dont care all im saying in my personal experiance aikido is not something that should be taken lightly

  • look at these two dorks just arguing on youtube

  • youd be suprised somebody whos legit at aikido ive seen take out a kickboxing ego maniac on the street... like no joke fast punch fast grab laid the boxer out with sick quickness.. i didn't believ it either but turns out uke is only punching like that for demonstration and muscle memory purposes you literally don't have time to react or use your strength to tighten up so the person wont marionette you around its too fast.... i was that boxer... 12 years of experience with my ass handed to me...

  • @Knight2321 nope. Aikido guy will NEVER punch like boxer, since they punch DIFFERENTLLY. Aikido will NEVER kick strong, since they kick differentlly then muay thai. you are simply ignorat idiot who does not understand why boxers can generate bigger damage with theyr punches and why muay thai generate biggest =damage with theyr kicks. If you would start to study it, you would know, yet it takes some brains so I doubt you will ever find out why muay thai is nr 1 kickers!

  • @ThePadus i never said aikido punched. i said my punch was grabbed. now agreed boxers and muay thai are definitely stronger but sir the strongest man in the world on a surf board cant stop a wave from crushing him through motion aikido isn't about strength muay thai can generate all the damage in the world but if your damage is being used against you it means nothing i do study it in fact im well aware of how deadly muay thai/boxing is but ive seen aikido actually used and its no joke sir

  • @Knight2321 Ok.I understand your point,but there is one "but".Just like boxing have strongest punch and muay thai strongest kick,there is allso fastest punch/kicks.Wing Chun have most fastest punche in the world.Record is about 12 punches per second.It is because they are holding theyr fists verticaly.Therefore your hand use only your triceps for punching,not shoulder and chest mucles like in boxing.So how would aikido work against 12 punches per second?How can you redirect smting faster?

  • @ThePadus in aikido, it's not always redirection. There is also evasion.

  • Nothing revolves around power but those who abuse it... You think boxers are better, but we are all equal. Nothing is better than another. Understand the wisdom we have to learn and detach yourself from your never ending hunger for what is so quote "better than that!" You perceive that to be true but everything is a lie. It takes true wisdom to understand that and courage to accept the facts.

  • People do not punch like that. It is called mid punch and it is performed way differentlly. I would love to see how aikido guy would do his aikido shit on boxer hahahaha aikido guy would be DEAD !

  • Comment removed

  • @Knight2321 I will try to overcome little english language knowledge and explain to you in polite manner. You see, its about human anatomy.Boxers punch with theyr hips and shoulder, therefore they are using all muscles that can add damage to punch.Aikido IS NOT using same muscles, therefore punch will be SLOWER and more WEAK.In muai thay,they swing leg more backwards, which gives leg bigger distance to travel, which adds more kinetic energy to kick.Person will kikc stronger in MT way of kicking

  • only a idiot gonna try to strike like that

  • I heard something pop during that fast slip..... poor uke :[

  • It seems to me that people are forgetting that mma is just that an mixture of martial arts, so yes aikido along with bjj and or boxing skills could be very effect.

  • people....Aikido is weapon based. everything you do (historically) was done with a sword or knife. It WAS NOT made for streeti fighting. With that said could SOME(not all) moves be applied to street fights or mma? sure... if you are very good (and not the dance like aikido, yes there are different forms...gasp) but in a real street fight you lose your fine motor skills in like 10seconds....so im gunna be hitting the guy instead of doing aikido. yes...i love it.

  • @whatsflawless Weapon based, what do you mean by that? As far as I know many of aikido's paternal arts were used to supplement weapon training in case the warrior got disarmed. Of course the warrior could add a knife or a sword to amplify the result of his technique, but many techniques were to be applied without the use of a weapon.

  • @Avatar23561 thank you you are right.

  • My teacher demonstrated some of this when I asked him about it, I was really intrigued at it all. After watching this, I'm definitely taking up lessons XD

  • mmmm...technically mune is torso or breast (as in chest). Chudan is more literal mid-level

    But this is a great vid

  • @asniperx Hello mate,I used to train with Sifu Goh as well,over 16 years ago!,

    great teacher!,say hello from johnny.(jonjo)

  • You could own in wrestling with this shit! Muahahahaha

  • @Metallopolis1 i think it's called cheating lol

  • Haha you could own with this shit in wrestling! Muahahahaha

  • Yeah, i want to see this idiot do this to a MMA fighter.

  • i do wing chun in the uk with sifu goh but i want to do aikido as well to me a perfect style is wing chun bjj and aikido just my opinion thats all.

  • @33Rooker You realize that Anderson Silva trains with an Aikido master right?

  • @33Rooker its muscle memory man you are learning body flow and mechanics. and hapkido (which initially went hand in hand with taekwondo) was specifically made for practicality and street fighting. and like i said mma is crap. and competition of ANY form of fighting waters down the initial version. why? cause its just a sport. so suck it!

  • is aikido really useless on the street ??

  • @BlakeVocals no its not

  • dudes, enough with the quarreling its going no where, even if you go against a skilled fighter this, or this may not be applicable every time, but still it depends on the practitioner. so have respect for other martial arts.. I respect mma fighters and every martial artist there is.. ok ?? peace out..

  • @EarendurTelemnar nah, i just meant that Aikido is not effective in MMA or again skilled strikers. Aikido is a great martial art if you're looking to defend yourself again everyday idiots that might try to attack you, in the octagon, it has no place

  • @MMAFan6666 mma is the watered down competion form of martial arts. its crp and not worth the hype everyone gives it. real fights are alot dirtier. and this is very effective in them

  • Good luck doing any of this on a skilled fighter, fact is you'd be on the floor begging for mercy

  • NOW I REMEMBER! But if this is a yellow belt technique, why was I being thought in white belt mode? 1:40 onwards is what my sensei kept on doing to the Japanese visitor in the dojo XD I'm surprised, no matter how loud the impact is, no one's hurt! Now all I have to do is master that forwards fall *shviers*

  • Is there a systematic description of the whole aikido-style? I would like to know how many single techniques exist!

  • @FightingWarrior You really don't understand that respect for other arts is a huge part of being a well rounded martial artist. If you have no respect for other arts,you make yourself sound like a dumb ass violent redneck and a silly little person who would probably be beaten in 8 seconds by a real Aikido fighter.

  • @muclesmarinara

    Really cheap philosophy, Aikido isn't a martial art even for his own founder, Ueshiba.

    Using respect regardless is denying the term by itself.

  • @FightingWarrior RIght. I am no philosopher. Why watch these videos just to say negative things? Why? What is the real reason?

  • @muclesmarinara

    Because I love martial arts and if my "negative things" would open someone's eyes and mind, my "mission" is accomplished.

    Too much bullshit, fakes and falsehood around.

  • Yeah you make some valid points. Most of the bullshit comes from UFC and MMA in my opinion. Il tuo inglese è molto buono. Quindi, qual è il tuo stile? Io sono un pugile fino alla morte e io sono relativamente nuovo per Kenpo.

  • Is there a Kotegaeshi for a face punch? Or any other technique to counter a face punch, jab cross, hook, uppercut? Thanks.

  • Can anyone tell me who this instructor is and what dojo he teaches at? This guy has a gift for teaching.

  • when do you learn like moves like this at what belts ?

  • I'd also say on the kotegaeshi, you should put their arm on the ground while throwing, you don't open yourself up like the big throw he talked about, but you get that same power.

  • Where is the first vide he mentioned?

  • instead of "moonet ski"...wouldn't it be pronounced munet sooki  ?

  • @TexDad1971

    Nope.

  • whoa this was beautiful! wish I could do that...

    I have one question though, ate the wrist lock right at the end, couldn't he have grabbed your leg? you seemed to be in his reach

  • @TheGentledawn yeah but evan if that is tru , i highly dout it would matter .. his pretty much pined ..

  • @TheGentledawn

    In that case, hold his arm outstretched, cup his elbow and bend his arm backwards... would remove any want (or will for that matter) to kick you...

  • this is my fave technique to watch, but the hardest for me to learn. Beautiful.

  • eek that look hurt

  • thank you and thank you again you are a good TEACHER...

  • You are the first competent MA instructor I've seen on expert village. Keep up the good work! It is people like you that keep TMA alive! :)

  • fuuul

  • Awesome demonstration. This technique is flowing and beautiful.

  • gracefull martial art

  • Wow someone on an expert village thats actually an expert. nice

  • Aikido masters would make great salsa dancers.

  • Below ... my android phone autocorrected my comments ... rephrasing that ... I would love to see a video where aikido techniques, are used against muay Thai and western style boxing.

  • I love the technique ... the only question I have is this ... the guy is punching like he has a sword ... if you notice, uki is in standard position, then when he throws a right punch ... his right foot move forward .. which is incorrect in striking , unless you are shooting a left Muay Thai kick. most strikers are using muay thai, boxing or karate. I am very interested in a video that uses of kito against movie time and western boxing techniques .. that would be awesome! Good technique BTW:)

  • love it!

  • interessant j ouvre you tube en parallele , il s affiche en pseudo idem TheAxellle et you tube me propose come bonne lecture...: ( video recommandées= le prince noir sur le peripherique, le patient garde le controle lor (<<< eric merlot hypnose brussel paris ulb ines tetra emdr prison st gilles forest simeon ) , des globules blancs : francis huster , mon pantalon est decousu parceque vous avez regardez michel simon ( y a bien bien longtemps ..suis pas seul sur mon psuedo you tube

  • ne pas donner sa force a l adversaire exploiter la sienne

  • do you really have a clear enough head to dance and spin around an attacker in a fight, or would you more likely just freak out, run or flail your arms around hoping to hit something...

  • looks really choreographed.

    let's see this asshole fight brock lesnar or any other pro mma fighter.

  • @BluePittbull666 That's why it's called a demonstration... Also Brock Lesnar sucks, we all saw that in his last fight when he got dominated by a guy who was actually in his weight class. Even his fight before he barely won after getting pounded in the first round.

    What a poor example of a fighter to use.

  • @matics19 Brock doesn't suck,Cain is just that good.

  • @BluePittbull666 As many of my senseis have said, "If it looks choreographed, there's a good chance that it's being done right." I won't claim that knowing Aikido is the cure-all to winning fights, but it's very much valid as a means of self defense - especially considering that the average schmuck anyone will fight will mostly just be throwing punches or basic kicks. Don't know about you, but all the fights I've seen started have never been between people who actually train in a martial art.

  • I find, as someone who's main advantages against an opponent is my speed and flexibility, that Aikido is one of the more effect styles for me since there is a lot of redirecting and using an opponents own attacks against them.

  • i know it looks like it wouldnt work but it does,i was skeptical myself till i seen some use this shit in a supermarket parking lo.t i really couldnt believe it.

  • Yes, you two are correct. I was coming from a Bam-getaway POV, in the art of aikido this is doable, and if you've spent the time on it, will work in a real situation.

    I have been an aikiod guy since I was 8 (I'm 26 in Apr) I did not mean to imply that I was against this art.

  • You have to be a really high-rank or practice all day everyday to make wrist locks work in a real situation. Not being down on Aikido, just from a practical view, very rarely will you have the room to do anything overly-flamboyant, and wrist locks are very tricky to do on someone who is fighting against them.

  • @JamesMMcCann that is ture but having used this technique in combat before, it works and it is not as hard as it seems. the momentum would be enough. the risk lock in real combat is actually not need unless your enemy is significantly larger or stronger than you, by using his wriste as a fulcrum you can easily bring him down. also the point of the turning which you would call flamboyant is based on the principle of the marshal art, that Aikido is not to be used to attack and only to protect.

  • @noobgai2009 I thought the whole point of the turning , tenkan, was to get off line so you won't get hit/tackled in addition to getting into position for a technique.

  • @insaneduane thats ture but I didn't metion it because it is one of the obvious reasons to the turning. but if you have been in real combat and used this enough times the turning will come naturally. but for me because I have only used it a few times in real combat just move and do the simplyfied technique because my opponent isn't train in marshal arts. while if i were to fight a real marshal artist I would most definatly use tenkan.

  • @JamesMMcCann But you also have to remember this is just one technique and there are many in Aikido, some of which are better suited for extremely close and others with plenty of room

  • @JamesMMcCann Kote gaeshi is not a wristlock. It is a throw of the entire body that engages the wrist at some point.

  • @shihonage Kote gaeshi is designed to break the wrist, so it does lock up the wrist. It turns into a throw only if the uke chooses to be thrown (otherwise uke's wrist would break). I only know Japanese aikido terms vs speaking Japanese but I am pretty sure all the "throws" end in "nage".

  • @insaneduane That was a reply to someone who sees kotegaeshi as a wristlock that "can be fought against". My point is, the most important part of it is the taking of the attacker's entire balance. If that is successful, the wristlock itself becomes an optional afterthought, and, if fought against while uke's entire body is off-balance, it pits uke's muscle vs. nage's center, which is a losing battle for uke.

    There's no "lock" without the "throw", but the throw can be done without the lock.

  • @shihonage I agree that taking the ukes balance is important but my point is if kotegaeshi is done correctly the uke doesn't have a chance to "fight" it. I also agree with "pits uke's muscle vs. nage's center, which is a losing battle for uke". I don't understand the "There's no "lock" without the "throw"" statement. If we are sticking with kotegaeshi, I can lock the wrist up and break it if the ukes doesn't take the hardfall. The average Joe wouldn't throw himself.

  • @insaneduane All my comments come from the experience of trying to "wristlock" a resistant opponent. The lock itself is worthless without the disbalance that precedes it, and the disbalance alone can be continued into a kokyunage even without the lock.

    The disbalance is 95% of this technique, not the lock itself. You can't just come up to someone, grab their wrist and kotegaeshi them.

  • @shihonage I still agree with you regarding taking ukes balance. :) I still don't understand your "There's no "lock" without the "throw"" statement unless you're equating "throw" with "taking balance".

  • @Collete13 What korkmazduran is missing from his explanation is why you don't have to be strong. It's because you use the strength of your opponent, so the stronger he is, the stronger you are. It's the technique what counts.

  • I want to learn aikido, but I'm a girl and I'm not so strong..., can I?? :S

  • @Collete13 You don't have to be strong and it doesn't matter if you are a girl or a boy, just pay attention during the lessons and have fun.

  • @Collete13 You can learn it of course. Especially when you are training you don't want someone that is going to try to make it as hard as he/she can to get out of it. Just practice and you do it.

    This looks like it completely throws you off balance on one side and you step in so the person falls. I would also advise you take a look into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. It's a lot of fun and I have been teaching my sister, it's incredible fun and effective.Check out the Gracie Academy youtube for more info

  • aikido is so good at breaking wrists that its banned in mma and ufc

  • like like like..............

  • Great demo'. well done.

  • he has no chance against mma fighters.

    brasilian jiu jitsu best system ever.

    aikido is for old men.

  • @BluePittbull666 Your right, cause its all about standing a chance against an mma, aikido sucks.

  • When you actually have a clue about martial arts and their application in real life situations, then you can comment. MMA/BJJ etc are sports. Aikido etc are practiced slowly as application of the techniques at full speed causes serious injury. When you practice a SPORT defined by rules, you are already limited.

  • There is a brilliant article written by Mark Tennenhouse called AIKIDO AS A FIGHTING ART that comprehensively funtionalized aikido without losing aikido's tradition and very well reflected my experience with aikido through hapkido,judo,bjj,wrestling,ken­po karate,shaolin chaun fa,and quite a few other arts.Read the article,PLEASE.Aikido will FINALLY be sensible and formidable; or you can keep being unfunctional.Btw I have real world wristlocks in my karate videos on my Channel.Please comment

  • @ATACXGYM be clear, nothing personal, y'll be my best friend, but I don't creed in what I don't see!

  • @ParkFight Makes perfect sense to me man.I wouldn't always recommend "creeding" in what we may not see.I'll leave a video or 2 here to help illustrate my point.These videos are using my karate base combined with my wristlocking/joint locking skills,and they're step-by-step instructionals.I'm filming at least 10 more videos in the coming month with lots more locks and they include WRIST AND JOINT LOCK SPARRING,to put to bed the myth that we can't spar this way.

  • Everywhere in youtube it's full of incredible aikido vid how they can manage kicking, boxing, grappling and everything. AIKIDO IS A FAKE AND IT SIMPLY DOESN'T WORK! go in a dojo and try go in a dojo and try... YEAH I'M HERE AND I WANTO GO IN A DOJO TO TRY! HIDE UNDER YOUR PATHETIC VIDS OF YOUR DREAMS

  • @ParkFight I completely agree that training the attacks and defenses unrealistically as in most videos (this is one of them,it's just better than the other craptastic videos) gives unrealistic results.However,realistic close range combat training,while blocking striking,redirecting,moving(es­sentially "the scramble") proves aikido's AMAZINGLY effective.I sparred MT (12 years experience) Judo (black belt) bjj wrestling with MMA guys D-1 and 2 wrestlers and tapped 8 out of 10 of them.

  • @ParkFight I agree there are many aikido dojos that do not teach self defense, some do. It all depends on the type of aikido and the aikidoka. Aikido techniques do work and will break joints and bones when DONE PROPERLY. There are also several killing techniques too. I think you have been watching many aikido videos that lack a raw, rough and tumble aspect aka too polished and "choreographed".

  • Only an imbeciel would throw a punch that way.

    Aikido looks nice and has some merit along the line, but in general it's quite useless.

  • DID you hear the crunch of the guys wrist at exactly 1:41? it looks like he was hurt lol

  • I can honestly say that this defense is totally theoretical. It depends too much on a way of striking that NO-ONE in this day and age will throw. Therefore totally useless man.

  • yea foot work is very important, i always have a hard time gasping it visually in class

  • I absolutely love the vids.. but i wish you would show more of the footwork.. i find it to be essential in my aikido training. Much energy, love and grace in your training.

  • a kotegaeshi variant can applied wherein the wrist can be projected forward if uke decides to pull the arm back.

  • @beachsunsetview i can insure you that kotegaeshi HURTS ;)

  • @MrRamboman123

    yep i know :P

  • Nage knows that he might pull his arm back; if he does, nage should just strike uke in the face with uke's own hand.

  • Hmm... Not exactly the way I've seen it, although the difference is small... The performance can be called somewhat arrogant. Once Mr.Boaz grabs uke's wrist , there's nothing really preventing uke from pulling his arm back. This can be a desiding factor in a street fight.

  • wtf expertvillage knows about aikido!!!

  • i am 13 years old, and i have been training for 8 years...

  • @shagy273 nice so are you really good at aikido

  • Pivot to 90 degree on the outside (not all the way around), then take the balance (no counterstrike possible)

    THEN apply kote gaeshi in a short and downward spiralling motion.

    Thats the corresct way to do it and it saves extra footwork and is more safe for nage.

    Cheers

  • aikido and jujitsu along with some karate= pwng

  • I mostly practice Muay Thai and I was wondering if I should learn aikido too. Definitely yes.

  • @egeseatr35 If you take your training seriously, you would greatly profit from that experience. And your training partners as well.

    I was also told that many martial artists that took up aikido, even just a bit, were able to find the "softer" sides of their "main" martial arts.

    I wish you fun on the mat. :)

  • @reymysteriocookie Ok, thanks, think I'm gonna go with Aikido. (;

  • Lol at 1.40 and however aikido is very very efficient and impressive, when you are immobilized to the ground look like at 1.41 you become helpless.....aikido is really efficient is the best martial arts, for self-defence and minimizes the damage to uke, and this is really important, because if if a bad beat his head, after a irimi-nage for example, it may even die...

  • @anthy1988 if you beat someone up then how can you clal it deffensive? then you be passive agressive still you be beating someone up..

    also its very helpless when you dont want to hurt someone.. if you had no choice that would be a lousy experience right?

    so even aikido practitioners must be careful.. you can get offensive with aikido if you are very hard its not good obviously

  • i do mma, had couple of fights...

    and this is good shit!

    i wish my gym had someone who knew aikido :(

  • @kenseisato1989 I do mma and the best thing aout aikido and mma is if you know aikido, hardly anyone eles knows it in mma so it's an edge.

  • @LineZer0TheBand

    i know thats what i'm talking about!! im a anti grappler/sprawl and brawler and the wrist locks i learned from hapkido and jiu jitsu when i was yung is so kick ass, it makes it so that they pull their hand back so that you can strike right after wards not only that if they don't pull back you can look like a bad ass by taking them down.

    but my knowledge in wrist lock is limited :(

  • @kenseisato1989 yeah, I wish I knew more.

  • The chances of most people learning Aikdo being able to grab the guy's wrist in this situation against a real attacker are very slim.

  • Im thinking of doing a type of martial arts but I'm stuck between two choices, Aikido or Karate? Any advice?

  • THAT was a BASIC technique?!?!? O.o

  • TY U!

  • @DarkGlobus1OO ty = thank you

    TY U = Thanks You you..

  • aikido is the martial aret if your opponent is a rag doll

  • @slipshodcoqbgg

    u are an idiot...

  • @slipshodcoqbgg No it doesn't... energy always comes from somewhere and eventually runs out.

  • lmao @ 1:40 love how he falls and you can hear the wind knocked out of him
