@theawakener7 The hypocracy originates with the ignorance of the art. Aikido's use of the attacker's momentum against the attacker should not be confused with the lala land of puppy dogs and rainbows. The only person that is not supposed to be harmed throught the use of aikido is the Uke. The main problem today is that far to many martial arts are far too art and little or no martial and couple this with belt selling dojos and dojos set up by people watching YouTube as their education.

@Robbob9933

so well said

@theawakener7 Now if you're wondering, since aikido originated from the use of swords, he killed all 3 of them with a sword, a sword and your hands can be used in the same way, just one can kill and one (i'd assume) can't, or shouldn't.

All i can say is aikido is a very very difficult martial art to master, as it takes a lot of precision and timing, Aikido can be dangerous, or aikido can be harmonious, thats the aikidoka's choice

@theawakener7 i also said aikido is meant for survival, if you have to kill a man to survive, then so be it, these men taht attacked ueshiba came with murderous and heinous intent and they weren't just gunna get beaten up and simply walk off. What had to be done, had to be done. In modern times, things have changed. The people that plan to rob you, will most likely not want to kill you. I respect the fact that you are so devoted to the martial arts, infact i may even have respect for you.

@theawakener7 i'm also curious as to know what martial arts you actually did

[VictimOfFat3]

@theawakener7 if you had really learnt anything from all the martial arts you've learnt, you'd have more respect for other martial arts, even the ones you consider are 'useless'. If it was useless then Morihei Ueshiba (the founder of aikido) and Shioda Gozo (who did judo for a very long time before aikido) would have even considered the martial art in the first place. Morihei ueshiba had to be a bodyguard at one stage and killed 3 bandits using his aikido.

@theawakener7 black belt is only the beginnin, until u start getting into dans, u won't be a good fighter, it also depends who it was that learnt it. Being a black belt only means u spent time on it, not that you're good at it. Aikido wasn't made to bash your opponent, it was made to survive in the outside world, stop lookin for the violence in it.

@theawakener7 Hi you back! Well, its a fact also that martial arts are ALL perfect the way they are. But how perfect and effective they are in a dojo, ring or in the streets,depends in the person, more than in the martial art itself. So after the previous, we could say that when you beat Sensei Turner, you obviously were better than him, but not better than Aikido,Because you just beat a man, not Aikido itself.. and just for knowledge,do you practice any martial art? which one? if you don't mind

[Ckld1]

@theawakener7 jaja! you seem to be really confident of what you're saying... I hope you have the opportunity to practice aikido or at least to see aikido in action... maybe it could change your point of view. but if not... well aikido still be as great and beautifull as it is, even if you don't this so... peace man!!

@awakener. I guarantee the guy with the skirt on can kick ur ass any day of the week

[consityis]

@theawakener7 hmmm nah its better then a slug fest

[forgedtrue1]

aikido is not very easy to learn just through video, there are many internal aspects to consider as well, to have a good uke and instructor is crucial

[sansprejudice1]

can i have all of your video aikido techniques?

[zDSpider]

I don't get it at 0:57. Why horizontal stretches ? Isn't it supposed to be vertical ? The shoulders ARE tensed in sankyo. You can see it at 1:16... The arm is vertical, shoulders tensed (that's why he's on his toes)... So shouldn't the stretch be vertical also ?

Thanks.

PS: Pinky behind the ring finger was a good tip.
