  • now slide both feet and you can do the moonwalk

  • Interesting.

    A slightly different approach to teaching the movement. We teach that you need to move your center first in the direction you want to go as opposed to pushing with the quad of the appropriate leg.

  • @Yojimbo416 this style of akido seems more judo based never been taught to lunge or push myself around always been taught to step forward with my center in harmonic balance gentally

  • @UndertakersFans for your foot work i advise you to sit in the kungfu horsestance for as long as you can

  • such odd footwork

  • HELP! I am struggling with "four corners. Reishi, Reishii tin con , tin con and good God I forgot the last one but I have to get this!! I can do them separately but then I face the wrong way and I forget to stay in a straight line. WORST session I've ever done to date.

  • shhhh... u talk too much

  • nicely done!

  • this guy is sean flynn! the author of my university book economics

  • An absolutely ouststanding video! I recently began studying Fugakukai - KiHara Method. As I have been being taught Aruki within the method, based on my background in martial arts, I felt strongly within myself that something was "missing" or "lacking". I watched your video, and it filled in the blanks! Sadly, I dont think all Tomiki style instructors comprehend or even know what you explain/detail in this video. You should really make a DVD and market it!

  • Your way of moving is quite similar to Wing Chun.
