#aikido — Public Fediverse posts

Wer #Aikido sucht, wird Aikido finden.
Ein #Aikidoka des VfB Jagstheim ist gerade im Urlaub im Schwarzwald. Am #Wandertag am Herzogenhorn begegnen ihm Leute im #Hakama. Im Leistungszentrum #Herzogenhorn findet gerade ein Lehrgang mit Lehrer Pascal Olivier aus Paris statt. Für die Grüße vom VfB Jagstheim hat er sich mit der Gelegenheit für Fotos bedankt. Evtl. nehmen wir auch auf dem Rückweg das Angebot wahr, am Training teilzunehnen.

Yamashima-sensei, 8th dan in #aikido, and well over 80, is in Finland this week and we have the pleasure of hosting him at our dojo in #Rajamäki on Thursday at 18:00. He is the most approachable 8th dan we have experienced, and takes his practise sincerely but with a smile. Despite his age he still travels and teaches constantly, and will be leading practise every day this week. He says he still learns new things about aikido every day. Jukara in Vantaa will be hosting a seminar with him over the weekend.

I hope some of you can make it over! All belt grades welcome.

Allí estaba simplemente Steven Seagal, un joven instructor de aikido, junto a Miyako Fujitani, una mujer que sabía tanto o más que él sobre el mundo que acabaría convirtiéndolo en famoso.

Y quizá esa sea la parte más curiosa de toda la historia.

Mientras Hollywood convirtió a Seagal en leyenda, Miyako siguió haciendo exactamente lo mismo que hacía antes de que nadie supiera quién era él: entrar en el tatami, enseñar aikido y continuar con su vida.

Ella no necesitó Hollywood para convertirse en maestra.

Él sí necesitó Hollywood para convertirse en Steven Seagal.

Ah!! Y en 2011 Seagal llevó su imagen de hombre de acción un paso más allá.
Prestó juramento como ayudante del sheriff del condado de Hudspeth, en Texas, y pasó a patrullar un tramo de unas 98 millas de frontera con México.
Su cometido incluía vigilar los cruces ilegales y combatir el narcotráfico.
No era simplemente una aparición publicitaria: ocupó oficialmente el puesto y participó en tareas de vigilancia.
También impartió entrenamiento de defensa personal a otros agentes aprovechando su experiencia en aikido y artes marciales.
El hombre que durante años había interpretado a policías, agentes y tipos duros en el cine ahora llevaba uniforme y patrullaba de verdad la frontera.

July Recap: Martial Arts, Mats and Mountains.

Besides our regular twice-weekly Aikido practice (and of course we went horse riding as well) this July my daughter and I found ourselves visiting other dojos near us, meeting old friends and making new ones.

The month began with an invitation to a Saturday morning weapons class at a friend’s dojo. They practice in a school and their outdoor training area (which is the school’s football pitch) comes with a rather spectacular backdrop: the panoramic view stretches across the Salzach River to Burghausen Castle in Bavaria. Burghausen Castle is a massive medieval fortress. With a length of more than 1050 metres, it is apparently the longest castle complex in the world. We wanted to visit it after practice, but had to change plans, it was a busy day. Another time, hopefully.

A few days later, we visited another dojo in our area for an evening seminar. This one doesn’t offer a castle view, but it makes up for it with beautiful architecture. It was designed by a Japanese architect and built by the local government 20 years ago, together with some sports clubs. It is used by local and regional Martial Arts Clubs: Judo, Karate, Aikido, Jiu Jitsu – and more.

The following weekend brought something completely different. Some members of our Aikido club also practise Iaido, and one of them invited us to his home for an afternoon of Tameshigiri (practising sword cutting skills on straw mats, using traditional Japanese swords) The mats are tightly rolled, tied, and soaked in water for 24 hours to achieve the right density. However, this isn’t about destroying something. It’s about precision, focus, responsible and respectful handling of weapons – and perfect technique. I was the one with the camera, so I don’t have photos of myself in action, at least no good ones 😉

The highlight of the month was our annual summer seminar near Innsbruck last week: a full week of Aikido with four to five hours of training every day, bringing together participants and teachers from Austria, France and Germany. As always, it was inspiring, challenging, and a wonderful opportunity to train with so many different people.

There was only one small complication. We are in the middle of another heatwave. Temperatures are around 40°C, and unsurprisingly Austrian sports halls and dojos are not equipped with air conditioning. We trained, sweated, drank endless amounts of water and electrolytes and then trained some more. It was exhausting, but deeply rewarding.

However, I can’t even begin to describe how much self-discipline it takes me to spend five hours a day training in a sports hall when the weather outside is perfect for hiking and the mountains are right there outside the window, impossible to ignore. I resisted the temptation almost every day. Almost. Only one day I couldn’t resist the call of the mountains any longer, skipped training and went hiking instead. I did two summits and had an absolutely wonderful day, probably the best one since last summer. As I spent the day at an altitude of 2000 – 2600 metres above sea level, I was also able to escape the heat as an added bonus 😊

Some months don’t need a single highlight. Sometimes they become memorable simply because they are filled with the things you love.

Tonight we saw three different forms to get out of kosa dori (also known as ai hanmi katate dori). One form more natural to do ikkyo, one form more natural to do shiho nage, and one form more natural to do kote gaeshi. Then we tried them all on irimi nage.
It helped me to clear some confusion, because I had already seen these three forms but never in the same session, so that helped understanding their differences and similarities.

Heute Abend haben wir einiges an #Aikido Prüfungen. Vier Kyu-Prüfungen und eine zum 1. Dan. Das sieht man ja auch nicht so oft.
Alle sind gut vorbereitet, ich denke das wird im großen und ganzen gut laufen. Danach kleine Feier.

I bought a new jo, with a larger diameter because that's what we use at my dojo. My first aiki-jo looks frail in comparison, but I think this is just an optical illusion because their diameters are not so different (8 bu and 9 bu).
However the new one is comparatively much heavier, obviously because of the square law. But I think it is even a bit heavier than the jos at the dojo. Perhaps because it is fresher wood?

Hier sieht man am Anfang verschiedene Kumitachi mit dem Schwert und danach die Kumijo mit dem Stab. Also das, was wir hier in den letzten Tagen auch auf dem Sportplatz trainiert haben.

Zum Schluss noch etwas Jiu Waza mit verschiedenen waffenlosen Techniken.

Man beachte, dass die hier auf einem Holzfußboden geworfen werden... Keine Matten!

Zu sehen sind hier übrigens die beiden Söhne unseres Senseis aus Japan. Den dritten kenne ich nicht.

Tonight among other things we did the funny nikkyo on morote dori where you block the partner's hand on your forearm and you push their wrist backwards with your other hand. I like this one, it is quite different from the classic nikkyo but still quite effective. It only works on a grab obviously

Seit ein paar Jahren beschäftige ich mich neben #Aikido auch mit #Shibari, einer japanischen Fesselkunst (in der sich gefühlt vor allem Neurodiverse tummeln). Mit Ren Yagami habe ich einen Lehrer gefunden, der ebenfalls Wurzeln im Aikido hat und dessen Prinzipien auf das Seil überträgt.

Seit gestern hat unsere Stilrichtung eine Web-Seite für Deutschland:
https://yagami-ryu.de/

Unsere Gruppe in Schleswig-Holstein: https://seilban.de/

La saison n'est pas encore tout à fait terminée mais les cours d'aïkido cette année me sont revenus (stage exclus) à 1,57 € par heure. C'est quand même assez remarquable.

Il faudrait que j'essaie d'ajouter les stages, surtout ceux qui nécessitent transport et hébergement, pour voir si ça fait exploser le compteur ou si ça reste raisonnable au total.
