3rd Kyu Techniques & Test Requirements Part 3

Yoshimitsu Yamada, a direct student of O Sensei for more than ten years, is an 8th dan and the chief instructor at the New York Aikikai. Currently, he is Chairman of the Board of the United States Aikido Federation and the Latin America Aikido Federation. He is the author of Aikido Complete and has made multiple aikido training tapes.

Yamada Sensei is well known for his clear and strong basic technique. He teaches seminars all over the world where thousands of students attend his classes.

Quote:

"We must keep the spirit of budo no matter how we practice."

Q: You were one of the earlier uchideshi at the Aikikai. What year did you start?

A: When I joined as an uchideshi only Tamura Sensei and Arikawa Sensei were there. Yasuo Kobayashi was still in college. He came to the dojo every day. I entered when I was 17. I am 53 now, so it must have been 1955.

Por qué los videos de este canal nunca se pueden insertar? Me parece que es un error grave... el fin de todo es difundir el aikido, asi lo dijo O'sensei...

Oh! I missed that uke moved back slightly as the tsuki came in. The punch served to change uke's position and generate more distance for Kaitenage.

[musashiaharon]

For Hanmi Handachi, Katatetori Kaitenage (7:36-): I was a bit confused by the initial atemi, because Sensei's attack didn't seem to quite reach the uke. Isn't the proper distance for that mune-tsuki a bit shorter than shown? What am I missing?
