Muiltiple attacker (randori) section of an Aikido Black Belt test set to "Take The L Train (To 8th Ave.)" by the Brooklyn Funk Essentials. Using slow-mo and various effects, I tried to replicate the heightened sensory awareness and time extension commonly experienced by the participants.

  • I don't quite get Aikido... It seems EXTREMELY effective... but anyone who practices inside a Dojo seems "overly eager" to fall. I don't know...

  • To non-practiioners, attackers may seem overly eager to fall and, to a certain extent, this is true. Falling correctly is an act of self preservation. On one hand, resisting a throw could result in serious injury. Plus you need to stay injury free in order to continue practicing. Does this address your concern?

  • ukemi is about falling an not hurting yourself. plus i'd say that if they didnt fall 'so enthusiastically' wouldn't there be injuries?

  • Good point... definitely does make sense. Cool.

  • Super track. I would like to know more about this group. Very melodic tune. Lovely. I used to hear it on The Late Lounge on JAZZ FM.

  • what's with the crappy "effects"? i just want to see the raw footage.

  • Very, Very cool...nice camera work and excellent martial art performance!

  • Great Randori! Great Video! Great Music!

  • Very interesting video. Well done.
