  • As an Jiu Jitsu instructor and MMA fighter, I have to agree with oscocat. I come from a Korean Kempo background, and I too believe that traditional arts have been neglected. It's supposed to be Mixed MARTIAL ARTS, yet it seems to be primarily jiu jitsu based. Aikido is a very tactical art for takedowns, and you can use jiu jitsu techniques for transitioning very easily once your opponent is on the ground. You just don't see any tradition anymore, and it's a shame. Thank you for this vid!

  • Nice! AIKIDO AND BJJ FOREVER!

  • @Hicktownwy Arguably people have done away with the traditions because they don't help in fighting. If you show someone a technique that works in MMA, they will probably start using it.

  • @videopapers

    aikido can be mortal... if you dont learn it, you can not understand it...

    Of course you can not beat in the cage, or ufc, this is something else, and you must training for this...

    And dont forget: who learn aikido, dont want to beat in mma... This dont understand people like you..

    And something else: you learn mma, you fight... for how long? what is the purpose? In aikido you will discover some other things that you can not discover in some other places...

  • @videopapers Sorry i didnt understand the point of your coment?

  • @Hicktownwy Agreed, I'd like to see the UFC go back to it's roots, style versus style, no time limit, no weight calsses.

  • @cabrame I train in MMA and also judge at MMA events in London.I'm aware of the difficulties some masters had adapting their style to open competition, during the early days of the UFC. But the UFC was not the first MMA event, I have seen many successful martial artists, from many different arts in mma events all over the world.Ultimately it is down to the skill of the individual and their mastery of their respective art; knowing how to defeat their opponent whatever their skill set.

  • muy buena tecnica

  • @lee7828 Training for MMA is very specific. It would be difficult for say a 3rd BB in Akido to compete in an MMA match with an experienced MMA fighter. This was done back when UFC first came about and a lot of so called masters got their asses whooped in front of all his students. lol

  • It would be good to see masters of more traditional Martial Arts competing in mma. spreading the message of their Arts further; not just amongst us martial artists, but to the wider general population. It was the method of publication the Gracie family used and has spread the word of BJJ accross the globe.

  • @HomunculusProject No offense taken...Like I said it was just a theory I have heard.

  • @Sharkman3472 No offense, but that is not nearly true.

    Daito Ryu was a family ryu (like many other). It was one of many Jujitsu-Styles. Today it seams most of them hav blended into one strange pot. However there are traditional arts like Yagyu Jujitsu.

    Kara-te originates from Ryukyu (now Okinawa). They had their own Martial arts (Te), which quickly were influenced by Southern Kung Fu and the fact, that weapons were banned. Kara-te is barely even Japanese.
