Introduction. Aikido, “the way of harmony and love, containing techniques for developing balance, coordination body (joint techniques, throwing, pivot)”.

On the on the one hand because of the “mysteries” that accompany this sport, on the other hand due to the instructive accompanying it. Among the many branches of martial arts, where some have the tendency more strongly to only focus on technical training, ignoring physical training, other martial arts ignore even preparing locomotor system, to practice safely this art, some even preparing musculoskeletal the practice safely this art. Current Aikido (Aikido Yoshinkan and Takemutsu) maintained in the training program and attaches the utmost importance of physical training: by approaching varied means of physical training for all age levels. Even for young children, a fact demonstrated in the pilot experiment conducted in 2012, the first program launched in Romania in the private school “Happy Kids”, today “Transylvania College, Cambridge International School-Cluj”.

She happened to be right next to me during the warming-up at the second or third lesson. When Koho-ukemi practice started she was struggling to get up herself as is very normal for a lot of beginners. Had I not known her personally I would not have paid any attention but because she was someone I knew, I tried to encourage her with the intention of making her feel more enjoyment, feeling sorry for her dealing with the hard exercises. -

Ritual Formalism and the Intangible Body of the Japanese Koryū Budō Culture
Original scientific paper Received: 27 January 2014 Accepted: 14 March 2014 DOI: 10.15176/vol51no109 UDK 796.8(520) Ritual Formalism and the Intangible Body of the Japanese Koryū Budō Culture LEO RAFOLT Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Zagreb koryū budō gendai budō The paper presents an analysis of the interrelationkoryū bud betweenō the traditional Japanese martial arts culture ( ) and its modern correspondents ( ). The analysis is based on the idea of inscribing on UNESCO's list of intangible cultural heritage, as Japan’s oldest martialkoryū cultural asset. Initial proposals to do so were put forward in the last ten years by some Japanese martial arts organizations, budōe.g. Nippon Budokan, especially by its legacy division. The paper interprets the ritual-like and pattern-like formalism of the Japanese modern and traditional legacy, especially in the context ofbud “Japaneseō nationalist history” after the Meiji Restoration. Emphasis is therefore put on the structures of movements that pre-exist in the ritual practices of the classical culture and are still present in modern martial arts systems, because of their hereditary and pre-formalized performativity. Key words: koryū budō, gendai budō, ritual, kata, Japanese martial arts The Japanese were the most alien enemy the United States had ever fought in an all-out struggle. In no other war with a major foe had it been necessary to take into account such exceedingly different habits of acting and thinking […]. Conventions of war which Western nations had come to accept as facts of human nature obviously did not exist for the Japanese. It made the war in the Pacific more than a series of landings on island beaches, more than an unsurpassed problem of logistics. -
DECEMBER 2017 Kancho’S Corner Numerous and Celebrated Milestones As the Unarmed Syllabus
VOLUME 27 ISSUE 11 P A G E 1 VOLUME 27 ISSUE 11 THE INSTITUSHIN DECEMBER 2017 Kancho’s Corner numerous and celebrated milestones as the unarmed syllabus. Time training and ‘rank’ is rarely mentioned because it has far less meaning to practitioners in a context such as the Koryu I assume. 2017 has provided a couple of highlights for me with the opportunity to refresh my relationship with two of the eminent teachers to whom I owe so much… Inoue Sensei and Chida Sensei… legends of Aikido and Yoshinkan Aikido in particular. They were hosted respectively in Sydney by Darren Friend & Peggy Woo Sensei’s and in Melbourne by Joe Thambu Sensei and everyone who participated in the seminars owes these teachers a real debt for creating the opportunity for the rest of us. During a Osu! Q & A session Inoue Sensei was asked if he December again… and another great year of considered himself a ‘friend’ of Shioda Gozo Sensei training is drawing to a close. The official Dojo – founder of the Yoshinkan – to which he replied Breakup Party is on Sunday 10th from 11am – 2pm simply “No… he was my teacher”. This didn’t imply down at Mooloolaba, however this won’t be the there was no friendliness… just that he (Inoue final training date. This year we’ll be training up to Sensei) never presumed to be Shioda Sensei’s and including Saturday 23rd December. The final friend. It would be interesting to know how Shioda class that Saturday will be held in the park at Sensei saw their relationship… might he have Mooloolaba Spit from 7.30 to 10.30am and considered Inoue Sensei to be his friend? We can’t everyone is invited to join in whether you normally say. -

Aikidó a Jeho Styly…
Aikidó a jeho styly… By KI Aikido Center (http://www.ki-aikido.com/) překlad L&S (01-11-2000) Aikidó Aikidó patří mezi Japonská Budó ("Cesta Válečníka") [Japanese Budo or Japanese Martial Way], a kolem poloviny 20. století ho po mnohaletém studiu klasických Bojových Umění [classical Martial Arts] založil Ó-Sensei Morihei Uešiba [O-Sensei Morihei Ueshiba], který zároveň definoval i jeho morální, etické a filozofické hodnoty. Aikidó je umění založené na principech harmonie nebo souladu, vnitřní energie ki, a účelném rozvíjení těchto principů usilovným praktikováním Aikida. Ve skutečnosti je i jméno Aikida složené z těchto principů: Ai — může být přeloženo jako harmonie nebo soulad, jednota, souhlas Ki — může být přeloženo jako vnitřní energie, vnitřní síla, mentální energie, vesmír, příroda Dó — znamená cesta, dráha, způsob života Už je vám asi jasné, že je mnoho různých překladů/výkladů významu jména Aikidó. Asi nejpoužívanější užší překlad je "Cesta Harmonie Ducha", ve smyslu "metoda nebo cesta (dó) pro harmonii nebo koordinaci (ai) vnitřní energie nebo ducha (ki)". Volný překlad by mohl být také "způsob života prostřednictvím harmonie s přírodou". V nejrannějších knihách bylo Aikidó překládáno jako "The Way of Chivalrous Spiritual Harmony". Další překlady jsou třeba: Způsob Koordinace Vnitřní Energie — pragmaticky Cesta Souladu s Podstatou Života — esotericky Jedna z hezkých věcí na tomhle dvojsmyslu (či spíše vícesmyslu :-) je, že si můžete svobodně vybrat překlad/výklad který se nejvíce líbí vašemu smyslu pro estetiku. Rozmanitost Aikida Zrovna tak jako je mnoho různých interpretací významu jména Aikidó, je také mnoho různých způsobů jeho praktikování, to vše v závislosti na individuálních sklonech, zkušenostech, a osobnostech učitelů. -

ROPPO-NO-KUZUSHI LESSON an Episode Regarding Randori
ROPPO-NO-KUZUSHI LESSON Kano Jigoro These images of Mr Kano can be fully understood only when it is understood the strategy of roppo-no-kuzushi. Through this point Judo-Kodokan could impose itself on the Jiu-Jutsu. Naturally Mr Kano left some trace of this in his writings. We wonder why the Kodokan of the post- war period has never spoken about this. From the text: Judo and life , autobiography of Kano Jigoro - Drawings from Judo- kyohon by Kano Jigoro. Editor's notes are in cursive. An episode regarding Randori Up to 1860 the jiu-jitsu training was only through kata, without randori Randori's foundations I would like to speak about the Kodokan. When I build up my first dojo, I was no more following the master of Tenshin-shin'yo-ryu, but Mr Iikubo of Kito-ryu. With him I studied up to the 18 th or 19 th year of the Miji era (1886 – '87), when I was already teaching to the beginners. At the start up of the dojo the master was 50 years old, though he was so strong that for me he was unbeatable in randori. The building of the dojo. The first training sessions at the Eisho's temple were run in the room created by moving aside the sliding walls between the leaving room and the sleeping room of Mr Kano. The vibrations caused by the break-falls techniques were disturbing the near temple's room. This was raising the complaints of Asashi Shumpo, the monk and landlord of the premises.
