Shoji Nishio Sensei was a true genius, taking principles from other martial arts like iaido, karate, and judo and integrating it into his aikido. He got a lot of flak cuz he didn't do what they did in Aikikai Hombu but apparently Osensei told Nishio Sensei that he was the future of aikido. Osensei and Nishio Sensei, among others, were true mixed martial artists, integrating different arts into their principle of a loving budo.

I made the first comment before looking at the whole video. When you repost and you need to repost it. Take out the crap around the outside that wastes the main picture area. If you want that, find a way to put it on the edge of the video picture. I do that all the time. Also most cameras pick up sound. If you have the sound, put it on no mater what the language. What he is saying is invaluable. Don't keep people from it. People will find someone who can translate what is said. Thanks

It's great that you have video and posted it. Perhaps you are new to making videos. This video could be better made on a better program and reloaded to show a much bigger picture. This was too small and had to load the whole video before it would play. Try an older, simpler program. I make videos using the Motion Pictures Expert Group format MPEG cause it will play within a lot of programs.

Good show. But video is too small and not clear. Could you make this video bigger and clearer? Thank you very much for posting this video.

Having had the opportunity to join two weekly seminars with Nishio sensei in Munich, I know, how much my aikido has been able to really advance. He really makes you understand the idea behind the technique. What a great loss for the budo-world! Try to practise it yourself. RW
