Thank You Master Yoshimitsu for your most inspiring moves. What I would like to see more is moves that defend against grasps. In most street fights there is either punches or grasps first then grappling. My concern is not being able to take down someone grabbing me from behind with a choke or from the front with both hands. I humbly Thank You Master Yoshimitsu.
Everyone respect this man because he stresses the fact that a knife is dangrous and you can t always win the fight. He is very genuine in my opinion. To me this kind of self- defense is the best there is and anyone whom thinks otherwise is foolish. I would also like to add that a taped session with just the movements themselves might allow people to see the true art of this defense. 2 hands will always overpower 1 along with the fact that you use lifes natural forces and momentum to throw people
I have a question ....I've been studying aikido from the line of Saotome Sensei for a while and I'm tired of this drills of one finger, and these silly things instead of focusing more on the real aspects of self defense...is all Aikido like that or is just the school I am practicing? Thanks!
He says: "I demonstrate many technique (sic) that have no name... my own version of technique." Actually, they all have names. Here ya go: Tantodori katadori tsuki (stupid knife attack) Wakigatame Kotegaeshi Tantodori tsuki Wakigatame Ikkyo (with a very risky ura ken strike) Slashing attack Okuri eri jime Yokemenuchi Gokyo to wakigatame Ushiro kubishime Sankyo Ushiro tsuki Kotegaeshi
Yoshimitsu Yamada your very good on of the best in the world. my son darren velasquez was in your school for 5 years up to purple belt. i just received my 1 dan at ultimate karate usa at age 52. thank you for your video's i love donavan too he's great. i been to your school ny aikika taking my son and step daughter for 5 years. i will come to your school to work out soon. donald raysor
take in mind that he is givin a distracting punch on ukes face first than back to the fist, and notice that there is always the possibility of changin the technique.
I joined Aikikai here in the philippines before. With Omar Camar as our grandmaster. How are you? master yamada. I saw you on NatGeo, with canadian host. Hope to see you in the philippines soon.
I really enjoy Yoshimitsu-sensei videos. I've been practising Aikido in about a year, but I've had to make a break due to my hectic school assignments.

I'm sorry, I have to agree. Letting go of the knife hand to backfist is a bad tradeoff. If you can maintain the knife hand do so at all costs.

Great. I don't have any video of Endo Sensei, except those upload by way-mastery. Wish having enough money to buy his DVDs.

I have 2 Way-Mastery DVDs and I was thinking to upload those so as I said nothing new.

I wish I have those DVDs. Just short clips from way-mastery helped me much in practising and teaching.
