The shiko that Akuzawa demonstrates in this video is how I want to learn to do it. He talks about it on aikido journal and I was looking for a visual. Am I correct Rob? If I were attempting to do shiko correctly, would I do it like Akuzawa demonstrates in this video?
It certainly would be interesting to see some internal guru or his/her students in a UFC-ish competition, putting these theories and static drill training to use.
Why not? It's one of the best ways. I doubt every single technique until I've had a chance to test them thoroughly. It can help keep you from adding trash to your inventory of techniques and reflexes.
I agree. Akuzawa has tested his skills in Sanda and against any takers including MMAers, Shooto guys - some of them study with him. NOW, you should do the same and go test your made-up-by-white-guy Anime Fantasy swordstyle against a classical Ryu or Kendoka. Post some videos for a laugh.
What I meant by my statement is you cant learn if you are skeptical. If you do not truly accept and study what you are learning of course the technique or skill will fail you.
Kind of like learning something for a couple of months and because you cant kick ass with it you deem it unusable or flawed.
You and statisticnerd should take a break from happy fun time and commit to real training for a couple of years. Only then can you truly learn what may work.
@ModernKenjutsu That makes an immediate assumption that you can do the "technique" well to begin with. If you're flexibility sucks, and you can't do rubber guard, and haven't learned it well enough, it doesn't mean that rubber guard sucks, you just suck at doing it.
What punchy means is that, you're looking at it wrong. You can't just look at an arm bar, how about the positioning, set up? All that is trained. If you don't train it, of course it'll suck.

AFAIK Akuzawa competed successfully in Sanda. You might want to start there if you're interested in internal methods applied to competition.
