Fujita sensei study part sixteen

Gyaku, aihanmi, ryote dori, ushiro ryote dori.

Fujita sensei kihon waza consists of movements derived from gyaku hanmi katate dori. Once these movements are understood one can proceed to aihanmi katate dori techniques. Ryote dori techniques are basically the same as gyaku hanmi movements, whereas ushiro ryote dori movements could be seen as a kind of aihanmi excercise.

 

So try to remember:

1. Gyaku hanmi katate dori: 4 basic taisabaki

2. Aihanmi katate dori: 4 basic taisabaki

3. Ryote dori same taisabaki as 1.

4. Ushiro ryote dori same as 2.

 

In this demo both gyaku hanmi and ryote dori are clearly seen.

 

In the following demo one can recognize gyaku hanmi katate dori, morote dori and aihanmi katate dori.

 

 

So all kihon waza of Fujita sensei are derived from the 4 basic taisabaki in gyaku hanmi katate dori and therefore to be practiced continuously.

Shomen uchi,yokomen uchi, tsuki can all be practiced using these body movements as shown in the next clip.

So Fujita sensei left us with a system to be studied and practiced while doing our Aikido.

 

Enjoy practice.
