3rd Kyu Techniques & Test Requirements Part 1

Yoshimitsu Yamada, a direct student of O Sensei for more than ten years, is an 8th dan and the chief instructor at the New York Aikikai. Currently, he is Chairman of the Board of the United States Aikido Federation and the Latin America Aikido Federation. He is the author of Aikido Complete and has made multiple aikido training tapes.

Yamada Sensei is well known for his clear and strong basic technique. He teaches seminars all over the world where thousands of students attend his classes.

Quote:

"We must keep the spirit of budo no matter how we practice."

Q: You were one of the earlier uchideshi at the Aikikai. What year did you start?

A: When I joined as an uchideshi only Tamura Sensei and Arikawa Sensei were there. Yasuo Kobayashi was still in college. He came to the dojo every day. I entered when I was 17. I am 53 now, so it must have been 1955.

Very good Sensei. He cradled the Uke's head as he was throwing ensuring a gentle throw and safety. He exemplifies the Spirit of Akido.

i hav my 3rd kyu test coming up very soon. i will look through all of your videos on the 3rd kyu techniques because they are very clear and obvious. the only difference is tht the aikido tht i hav learned is very different, more straight back and more in-front of the face.
