Aikistok, I applaud you for working on principles of Aiki against Keri waza.The Aikido world as a whole needs to evolve towards keeping Aikido current against possible attacks.Though I believe in the street kicking is on the lower end of the attack spectrum,high percentage movements against kicks need to be practiced.Your doing good by investigating theories using aiki principles dont forget to weed out the ineffective moves through realistic practice,a great start!!

Saying aikido "is" this or that will always bring you short of the mark of really knowing or wanting to understand what aikido is. Sure there is theory to aikido, it should be the basis of any art. But there is also application and in the aikido I practice, this certainly gets a lot of attention. The same with these keri waza techniques. What is shown is theory and instruction. Application takes another form.
We do not however jump or flip in our dojo, that's just silly ;-)

@Grumblemarc I have done a number of these with people really trying, and the problem with it is, the harder they try, the more dangerous the technique comes, also for them, as an attacker. So it is difficult to practice at real intensity. And the blood-thirsty, no holds barred berserking, seasoned with a bit of fear, which is what a street fight is normally like, is very hard if not impossible to emulate in practice.

@weloveanimetoo I couldn't place a direct link to my "storefront" on lulu in the reply to your question so I included it in the description of the video.
