Some of the students at Central Valley Aikido drilling their Aikido skills. One person has a knife, and the other is trying to stop him from using it. Either person can throw, or submit, but not strike.

Well first off, I'm glad to see some resistive training in ANY form in an aikido dojo, it is absolutely necessary to have a strong, and practical martial arts school.

Your students need to keep their posture better, utilize their hips and bodies more, and use their arm muscles a lot less. Also, Kuzushi is absolutely 100% necessary in any throw, just something to think about.

@superawesomejeff I looked for your Aikido videos; I couldn't find any.

@ChuShinTani good answer

[ChuShinTani]

@LittleHazey Nothing cryptic here. You don't understand it because you're not used to seeing it. You don't understand spoken language until you hear it spoken; often. As for "locks" they are a secondary part of the Aikido syllabus. A side that catches peoples attention, but makes them ignore the majority of what the forms are teaching. This drill is training once grabbed, much like Aikido forms train. We do do drills where the grab has yet to happen.
