Aikido: Leading Right to Right Outside
In this video we take one of four basic leading possibilities and use it with the reflex where a person moving forward suddenly has something in front of his face and he throws his head back to avoid running into the object. We do not want Uke to avoid a strike, we want Uke to feel that he is doing the action of running into something. This is followed by a Ushiro Nage structure break for the throw.
These techniques look very simple and in a sense they are, but they are not easy to learn. When doing these Nage barely touches Uke and the throws seem like magic. Most people explain them in magical terms but we think it is better to describe them as reflex control. Because the people learning the technique cannot feel what is making them fall it is difficult to learn. If you have a partner and you are trying to learn to do these feel free to contact me at the email address below. At this time I will be happy to work with you.
