@blacksuite1 Isnt the whole point of aikido that your opponent should be moving.
-
@myid9876543 actually he passed away in 1998
-
Wait a minute...the stuff I learn in my Krav Maga classes doesn't completely match what the old master does...
-
Yup. Master Imi was a real bad ass :) Respect.

@myid9876543 I'm not trying to fight, he died in 1998! =(, I remember the ceremony of his 100th birthday last year, in Israel, I am a Krav Maga instructor myself in Israel!

@MuayThaiViking Really?? That’s definitely an individual thing. I’m almost 60, and still bench press 465 pounds. I’m certified to teach three different martial arts (BJJ, Wing Chun, and Jeet Kune do) . On Family night, we take TKD (I’m a blue belt in TKD) , and in spite of my ‘advanced’ age, nobody in our dojo is willing to spar with me. I have no doubt that Imi was simply taking it easy on his younger ‘attacker’ because you don’t injure your students just to make a point… or a video.

@jackarf1 aikido, krav maga, MMA, kungfu whatever, i doubt a 80 year old who has trained his whole life would have good chances against a young attacker whos in good shape. but ofc an old master would have a much better chance than a normal 80 year old
but it can be done probably. if u train smart and keep in good shape. randy couture is 47-48 and hes fighting the best in UFC for example. he could probably be a mean 80year old if he keeps training smart
Imi is a legend ;)
