On one of our SINGLE LEG TAKEDOWN videos, someone posted "O Sensei never did this technique, it's not Aikido"
Not wanting to be that "I told you so" person, but after his passing Kissomaru removed many techniques from the syllabus in an attempt to simplify things, including kicks, strangles, chokes, and takedowns.
Remember, O Sensei CROSS-TRAINED. if he hadn't, Aikido would never have been born.

SO 50% of you wonderful people said you'd like to see a Q&A live stream at some point with some of our senior instructors. I'll do one alone over the xmas break just to see how it will work then hopefully can get some other senior people from around the Aikido, Aikijutsu and cross-training communities to sit in. Watch this space!

Hello lovely people!
A few of you have asked how they can support the channel - of course likes and shares are the core of growing what we do, but out of interest, if we decided to implement a membership program, with a nominal monthly sub, would any of you be keen? And if so, what sort of additional benefits would you like from us to show our appreciation?
Let us know!
