[fei83]

i want see move when he do same thing with somone bigger then him or same size

[youfafao]

He has often against men as tall as him and this allowed him to have a role in "above the law".

[groundpounder35]

Their are so many people who dislike him, for various reasons, but when he was in his prime he was so damn good. He is still "someone who came before me" or my sensei indirectly and I respect him for his style and his abilities.

[youfafao]

I met him some years ago and I can tell you that he is more unique than anything you can imagine ..

[inkingsakoptata]

He should incorporate more of his aikido back into his movies, I miss all the cool aikido fight scenes...

[Brady2k10]

and remember this is a demo, if this was seagal in a real fight with your average attacker can you imagine what seagal would do to him? that is the whole point of aikido, MMA guys train to fight other fighters, martial arts was never meant for such things, i dont mind MMA but when you all start insulting a martial art like aikido it pisses me off, because you put aikido in MMA something it was never meant for and because it dont work so good you all insult it, shame on you lot.

@fei83 watch how low he gets. In Aikido the shorter person actually has more of an advantage than someone bigger.

[Brady2k10]

whats this music?

[floydzepdeep]

I would have liked to hear him but just by looking at it you can tell he's melowed, he punished that guy!

[tech4156]

that other guy is like made of rubber

@MrMyroner I think what you mean is that aikido isn't supposed to cause long lasting damage, like paralysis or even death. And you'd be right. But think about what you're saying. Aikido is supposed to be harmless? As in cause no pain? So why implement painful techniques? Why not use 100% kokyo? Have you seen Moriteru Sensei's demos? He's shiho nage and nikkyo are visually painful. You're twisiting aikido into all art and no martial. It's designed to bring a guy down using joint pain and kokyo

[KurtCobain198666]

@MrMyroner ok so ueshiba taught knife defence. You have a 6ft guy come towards you with a knife, but you''ve got to use kote gaeshi without hurting him. You're missing the point of aiki completely. How are you meant to bring down an agressive attacker without hurting them? Kokyu techniques won't always work, you have to use joint manipulation, which by there very design, is supposed to be painful. Tell me how you apply nikkyo without it harming the attacker?

[MrMyroner]

@KurtCobain198666 origanal aikido was meant to be a peacefull harmless way and the 1st one is traditional aikido which is teh closest to the aikido O'sensei meant it to be

[KurtCobain198666]

@fei83 he's 6ft 3. There aren't many people the same size as Seagal

[KurtCobain198666]

@MrMyroner To much pain involved in Seagal's Aikido? Aikido is an incredably painful style. Techniques like nikkyo, kote gaeshi, sankyo and so on were devised to shatter joints. If aikido didn't have pain involved then it wouldn't be a martial art. You need to feel the technique while training to understand it's power, there's no point in being soft. In joint manipulation, it's the pain that subdues the attacker. Aikikai is the source of all aikido, no others would exist without it.
