aikido can be mortal... if you dont learn it, you can not understand it...
Of course you can not beat in the cage, or ufc, this is something else, and you must training for this...
And dont forget: who learn aikido, dont want to beat in mma... This dont understand people like you..
And something else: you learn mma, you fight... for how long? what is the purpose? In aikido you will discover some other things that you can not discover in some other places...
@cabrame I train in MMA and also judge at MMA events in London.I'm aware of the difficulties some masters had adapting their style to open competition, during the early days of the UFC. But the UFC was not the first MMA event, I have seen many successful martial artists, from many different arts in mma events all over the world.Ultimately it is down to the skill of the individual and their mastery of their respective art; knowing how to defeat their opponent whatever their skill set.
It would be good to see masters of more traditional Martial Arts competing in mma. spreading the message of their Arts further; not just amongst us martial artists, but to the wider general population. It was the method of publication the Gracie family used and has spread the word of BJJ accross the globe.
@lee7828 Training for MMA is very specific. It would be difficult for say a 3rd BB in Akido to compete in an MMA match with an experienced MMA fighter. This was done back when UFC first came about and a lot of so called masters got their asses whooped in front of all his students. lol
Now this is what Martial Arts is all about, the blending of styles and techniques. This is great stuff. It is believed by some that Aiki-Jui -Jitsu was the grandfather of all mainstream Japanese arts long ago, and it was broken down into 3 arts. the Aiki was strictly redirection of energy with out strikes or kicks [Aikido] Jui-Jitsu was grappling based, and all the kicks and strikes left over became the basis for Karate. Who knows if this is true.... They are all great arts though!!
@Sharkman3472 No offense, but that is not nearly true.
Daito Ryu was a family ryu (like many other). It was one of many Jujitsu-Styles. Today it seams most of them hav blended into one strange pot. However there are traditional arts like Yagyu Jujitsu.
Kara-te originates from Ryukyu (now Okinawa). They had their own Martial arts (Te), which quickly were influenced by Southern Kung Fu and the fact, that weapons were banned. Kara-te is barely even Japanese.
Just a few thoughts on multiple attackers...Always pay attention to what's going on around you, no matter how seemingly innocuous the situation. If it appears there's going to be trouble, extract yourself and go elsewhere. As Mr. Miyagi once said: "Best way to avoid punch (stab, slash, gunshot), no be there." If escape isn't a viable option, take out the windpipe of the closest person before anyone knows what happened. That helps even things up in a hurry.
@tapout00 Aikido is great for multiple attackers. "find the eye of the storm"---that is, find the calm in the middle of the chaos and stay there, redirecting your attackers around you until an opening presents itself and then strike at a weak point-windpipe obviously works great. Let's stop all this bullshit arguing about which style is best and train in multiple dimensions of fighting, to truly become a martial artist you have to empty your cup and keep learning.
@ProphetGuardian As far as the money comment, I have no response but heres the flaw with MMA. MMA focusses on a clean, fair, 1 on 1 fight. And if you want to talk true self defense, its never a fair fight. MMA doesn't practice knife fighting, multiple attackers or small joint manipulation. 1 on 1, MMA fighters would dominate, but as soon as any of thoes 3 elements are added, its a whole new game.
@CheetaRevised The fighters only train MMA because you can't use the other three you named in a cage!! In regards to multiple attackers, I would rather have Vanderlei Silva or the Iceman or Shogun by my side than some schmuck who practices fighting scenarios in the gym. In regards to small joint manipulations, thats just stupid, the reason why it's not used in t MMA is because it's easy to get a finger and break it while grappling but it won't win you the fight., but in benches fighters
@mbluemyst You didn't answer about the knife, people use weapons in a real fight. Thats something MMA doesn't need to train for. And as far the joint manipulation, ya you could break a finger but there are no rules to a fight outside the cage. A broken finger wont stop you from fighting but it certaintley aint gonna help ya
@mbluemyst "I would rather have Vanderlei Silva or the Iceman or Shogun by my side" ROFL, I had to respond to this especially. How often do you hang out with Iceman or Silva? I'm guessing not to often. We're talking about you defending yourself, not your TV idol defending you, or your friend who does MMA. YOU defending yourself! And how do you think Silva or Iceman trains Lol? How do you think they learn the choke holds, and arm bars and all that stuff UFC fanboys do in their backyards?
All the arguments on which is better: Aikido or BJJ. But here this intelligent male has combined them together, extremely interesting and very very clever.
@tubardix ikkyo and sankyo are mainly what you would apply to the BJJ. The arms and legs are chains, even though the bounce freely if you add tension and spin them the links lock and you can move the chain as a bar.
@giovannialvarez what is easiest and what is best are two different things, u want to know what is easy? kicking someone in the groin, stomping their foot, jabbing their throat, poking their eyes, smashing their ears, these are survival moves that any MMA fighter would succumb to in a survival situation
@kapoof2 "MMA" is a sport you obviously arent there to kill each other but those survival moves are vital to learn.....in my opinion those are the best techniques unfortunatly we cant watch some1s eye get poked out every week in an MMA fight
there are two ways to do a bjj move... try to force it on your opponent, or let them flow into your technique. Aikido principles are the same ones used in the latter. The only thing I don't like about aikido training is how ridiculous the attacks are... meaning without resistance. If they would put more effort into resisting the technique they could become good very fast. Until then it's just theory.
@imthebigbadwolf Ahh I see what you mean, Aikido defending against predictable techniques and the attacker co-oporates with the defender during practice. Might dislocate joints if they don't though. i think it's about feeling movement/force/weight so might still be effective regardless as the defender can feel/see the direction of movement and use the attackers force against them no matter which way it's going or changing.
Aikido flows so nicely into BJJ. There is no one style. Your MA style is what works for you. You must develop your own style as a martial artists and use what comes naturally to you. That is the essence of JKD. The way is no way. Be water. Flow like water and don't conform to the rigidity of any one style.
MY God!! At last!! It is so nice to see such vid. It is much more nice to read all the comments in which people does not argue "which MA is better and why mine is the best"! I train aikido and VT and think it is also a good combination, and I really respect other MA, cause now I know how hard is to master even a simple technique. Greetings to all!!
I also think as U,. And the hardest critics are the hardest morons in most cases. It is important not to be narrow minded and see also other aspects and possibilities MA give.
I take bjj, and by mixing aikido with it will make a fighter very hard to beat. You can take an opponent down with aikido and finish them with bjj. In my opinion this two fighting styles are the best for self defense. I look foward to learning aikido in the future. Thanks for the vid.
@caio933 If you train Aikido, it will only help your BJJ - it'll teach you to be fluid, elusive, and get people to the ground with very little force. Aikido has some very nasty finishes as well.
aikido and aiki jujitsu techniques take an attacker down.what you would call bjj techniques are very good finishing techniques. of course it all goes together it all comes from the same art once upon a time. people just don't care about the traditional arts today cause they are lazy. most ufc wanna bees just want to roll around on the floor even when they have never had any real training. good job roy keep opening the closed minds of todays martial artist. great combo i love it. two great arts.
As an Jiu Jitsu instructor and MMA fighter, I have to agree with oscocat. I come from a Korean Kempo background, and I too believe that traditional arts have been neglected. It's supposed to be Mixed MARTIAL ARTS, yet it seems to be primarily jiu jitsu based. Aikido is a very tactical art for takedowns, and you can use jiu jitsu techniques for transitioning very easily once your opponent is on the ground. You just don't see any tradition anymore, and it's a shame. Thank you for this vid!
thank you for the kind words. i also teach jujitsu the old Japanese/judo. it took me a long time to find a good bjj school. once i did i was hooked. the training is very different from the way the traditional style is set up.the techniques are the same .there is much more live training involved with bjj.the traditional style the teachers are worried about injury. they save the sparing for upper belts if any. one is judged on his ability as an uke just as much as his skill to demonstrate skill.
that's good man keep it up you will be training your mind to be in a calm state. which is very important. also more important is you can do aikido into your old age. it's a life long journey.
@Hicktownwy Arguably people have done away with the traditions because they don't help in fighting. If you show someone a technique that works in MMA, they will probably start using it.
I too see that all you need to do is step to you right side, off the line off attack, as u do kotegaishi. Other than that it was brilliant. Please keep the connections comming.
