  • The 20 jo suburi is a practise of the tsuki's, strike, sweeps and blocks that are within the kata's (static and flowing).

    Al so there is a build up in the 20 jo suburi: tsuki section, striking section, one handed section, rotating section and flowing rotating section.

    So I don't recommend to practice the 20 jo suburi flowing.

  • the movements do not feel substantial at all. even if the point was to demonstrate flowing movement, there is no 'spirit' here

see all

  • this sucks deeply!

    

  • I thought this was a great demo of a decent exercise - a good link between the staccato practice of suburi and the more flowing kata. it was in no way lethargic - simply presented clearly. thank you and keep up the great work!

  • I see that this "demonstration" is not credible, cause tsuki are not tsuki, asogaeshi are not asogaeshi, all movements are too smooth without conviction. Is it an martial art ? I don't think so ! pitiful !!!!! :-(

  • @Torinmr I do agree with you , i thought he was great and even want to try my movement like his.

    one can always put the power down. Also it does show he knows his movements very well.

  • youre crazy then what is the point of studying aikido? i agree on the defintion you mentioned.

  • @jmesa69x

    how can one know where there is or isnt spirit..are you in the soul of this man..how do you now what he feels...what this excersise means to him..?

  • There are many different ways to practice Aikijo (and Aikido in general). The person in the video is obviously not focusing on martial efficacy; he's focusing on making his movements as smooth and fluid as possible. Watching this video, I was awestruck by how amazingly beautiful he made the exercise look. Others may perform the Suburi in a way that would be much more effective in a fight; he probably could if he wanted to. My point is, don't judge something on what it's not trying to be.
