About Aikido Basics From A To Z: Aiki-Ken & Aiki-Jo
This next DVD in the series "Aikido Basics from A to Z" introduces you to the Aiki-ken and Aiki-jo, techniques and forms with bokken and jo, the traditional wooden weapons of the Japanese Martial Arts. You will get to know basic stances with sword and stick, different levels of attack, ken-suburi and jo-suburi, exercises with partner with sword and stick, different Forms of kumi-tachi and kumi-jo as well as a jo-kata and a bokken-kata based on the basic techniques you've already learned. In addition, you will get an insight into the ken-tai-jo (using the stick against the sword) by working with a partner and a kata. Aiki-ken and Aiki-jo are important parts of a good and full Aikido education but can also be integrated independently into other Budo-Arts. Aikido is a Japanese martial art that has steadily become popular worldwide. It was founded by Morihei Ueshiba at the beginning of the 20th century. Aikido includes elements of different Japanese martial arts, from weaponless techniques to the use of sword and stick. Aikido is a highly effective method of self-defense. In Aikido it is not about strength facing strength. The Aikidoka rather uses the attacker's energy to incapacitate him by applying throw and lever techniques. The attacker gets effectively controlled without being hurt. Aikido equally trains body and mind. In this educational film-series Aikido from A to Z Grand Master Reiner Brauhardt (8th Dan Aikido, Kyoshi) offers widespread training of all aspects of Aikido. Reiner Brauhardt is one of the most famous Aikido-Masters in Europe, as a pioneer of Aikido in Germany he started with this martial art more than 40 years ago. Since 1985 he has been a professional aikido-instructor and runs an aikido-school in Siegen. VPM-169
