Atari and Ikkyo 06 (Granada)_Seishiro Endo Shihan 当たりと一教06 遠藤征四郎 師範

[duchessofpercy]

With all due respect to those seeking more realistic techniques; I believe what we are seeing here is demonstration of a concept in AIkido, not a practical application of Ikkyo. I could certainly be wrong but it seems to me that this is from a seminar in which the Shihan is pressing an individual point, the point of blending not clashing; and perhaps another variation of Ikkyo. This is the beauty of AIkido, it can be applied on a spectrum of severity, the atemi is implied and used as needed.

Greatest sensei you can see today, in my point of view. I wish to train under him one day, if I have any chance. He had been the actual reason that I started practicing Aikido.

@aikikai17 & vadartpro: The video you're looking for is called "Atemi and Ikkyo", not "Atari and Ikkyo."

I hate fakery. It's as bad as quackery.

[vadartpro]

People!!! it is thery self dangerous technicks, you will be killed with the second arm immediatly!!! one can't ignore the second vicious attack!!! poor aikikai!! when you open your eyes at last to see.........

[aikikai17]

@vadartpro Your right. A well versed teacher would NEVER teach this. With all due respect this guy is putting those aikidoka in grave danger. Not to mention the fact he doesnt even strike to the face to distract while he moves into ikkyo.This the unfortunate reality where aikido is going. Down the drain soon to end up in a ballet studio. The minuite i leave myself exposed like the dan ranks would go for it (SMACK!) to show me and correct myself.

@aikikai17 Have you tried google? Search "Seishiro Endo" and check out some of the stuff that pops up. I'm sure you'll find some interesting stuff.

Thank you. Very informative.

One of the best aikido videos. Movement with precision, strong cut in center line, control of the attacker, protected instance and very peacefull mind. Thanks for this gift from Brazil.
