@tomtrash

sorry for double post, but i have to add, that the video itself is very, very good

and scene-cutting is awsome.

thx

[tomtrash]

i have seen many aikido practice movies.

many!

this is probably the best ever!

smooth, fast, flowting and very authentic from my humble

perspective.

this does not look like a dance as usual.

the uke not like a dummy.

this is transcendental.

thx for sharing this.
