STUDIA UBB EDUCATIO ARTIS GYMN., LX, 3, 2015, pp. 53 - 65 (RECOMMENDED CITATION) THE TRAINING TO IMPROVE SPEED YOSHINKAN AIKIDO BOGDAN VASILE, POP ALEXANDRA, BARBOŞ PETRE-ION1* ABSTRACT. Introduction. Aikido, “the way of harmony and love, containing techniques for developing balance, coordination body (joint techniques, throwing, pivot)”. It is approached at early ages, being a branch of sport much favored by children at young ages 6-10 years. This sub-branch of martial arts, due to exoticism, of how it is perceived by the little children produce emulation attracts to practice of a lots of children. 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”. This article proposes practitioners a set of athletics exercises in order to strengthen speed, with its forms of expression. By practicing these means of athletic, 2-3 times a week, can obtain high values of this quality (if there is genetic determinations), while in generally, give positive results in improving the biometric qualities, but also the correction of some posts balance or even fighting techniques. -

Hiroo MOCHIZUKI Soke De L’École YOSEIKAN BUDO
Hiroo MOCHIZUKI Soke de l’école YOSEIKAN BUDO To the Yoseikan world Salon-de-Provence, 27th December 2013 This year 2013 is marked by the 10th anniversary of the death of my father, Master Minoru MOCHIZUKI, first Soke of the Yoseikan School. As I was chosen to be his successor concerning the Budo of the Yoseikan School, I felt all the weight of the responsibilities for this legacy, as far as passing down and improving the School knowledge as well as ensuring its continuity is concerned. With this letter, I want first of all to thank his closest pupils for their support during this mission and especially for their efforts to preserve the spirit of work, research and uprightness that has been my father’s since the founding of the first Hombu dojo Yoseikan in Shizuoka (Hitoyado cho) in 1931. As Soke of the Yoseikan School since 2000, it is my duty to publicly remind everyone of the official list of experts who were awarded the diploma “Menkyo Kaiden” (*) by my father almost twenty years ago. It was published at his request in April 1996 in the journal of his international organisation BUDO YOSEIKAN. 1. MOCHIZUKI Hiroo 2. MURAI Kyoichi (†) 3. SUGIYAMA Shoji 4. MOCHIZUKI Tetsuma 5. MOCHIZUKI Kanji (†) 6. AKAHORI Katsutoshi 7. YAMASHITA Takeshi 8. SHINMURA Masaji 9. SUGIYAMA Seiichi 10. YOSHIDA Nobumasa 11. SUGIYAMA Tadashi 12. YAMAMOTO Kazumasa 13. MOCHIZUKI Seiichi (†) 14. TAKAHASHI Minoru 15. TEZUKA Akira (†) 16. WASHIZU Terumi 17. AUGÉ Patrick 18. KENMOTSU Hiroaki 19. FUKUJI Shigetaka 20. KAN Masaki First and foremost, I have to rectify the regrettable and inexplicable oversight of the name of Mr Alain FLOQUET in this list, member of the Yoseikan School since 1958. -
Contemporary Seniors 1: Similar but Different
Contemporary Seniors 1: Similar but Different Over 50 years of training in budo, I have been lucky enough to meet or train under many notable martial artists. This year, I want to share my impressions, some deep set, some fleeting, about the men and women I met on the way. There are several senior martial artists who I have trained with, beside, or under, albeit for a short time, separate articles about whom I have not as yet created. That is not a judgment of their worthiness or my respect for them, but that, since they are still active, I hope I can still train with or beside them. In Aiki, Miguel Ibarra and Roy Goldberg, two former partners have taken different paths, the first toward street-style ju-jutsu and aiki-ju-jutsu, the second toward a very refined and difficult aiki-no- jutsu. Both were former students of Anton Pereira. Having done seminars with them and having invited them to teach at my dojo, I can say that each represents his branch of aiki skillfully. Chronologically and in terms of time in the art, they are technically my juniors, but in their fields, their skills set a standard to which I aspire. I still reference Bruce Juchnik in a lot of the things I teach because we have found ourselves taking similar paths over the years even though he comes from a kempo and arnis background and I come from a karate and aiki background. He gets more relaxed and more effective every time I see him. If I can discover the details of a subtle movement he does—usually unconsciously—often it helps me refine some movements I am already doing consciously. -
One Circle Hold Harmless Agreement
Schools of Aikido This is not a definitive list of Aikido schools/sensei, but a list of teachers who have had great impact on Aikido and who you will want to read about. You can google them. With the exception of Koichi Tohei Sensei, all teachers pictured here have passed on, but their school/style/tradition of Aikido has been continued by their students. All of these styles of Aikido are taught in the United States, as well as in many other countries throughout the world.

This paper is a reflection on aikido as a tool for teaching about elicitive conflict transformation and the larger field of peace and conflict studies. Problem and aim. One of the central difficulties of teaching elicitive conflict transformation is that, as an adaptive and emergent method, it is non-prescriptive and therefore conventional didactics are inappropriate. The aim is to add to the existing corpus of literature on aikido and elicitve conflict transformation by combining the philosophical perspectives presented in this paper. Method. The reflection builds on a comparison of Canadian First Nation’s philosophy, the Japanese martial art aikido, and the Hei- deggerian term Verwindung as complementary philosophical approaches that can potentially deepen the understanding of elicitive conflict transformation. From the starting point of the Indigenous Canadian perspective from the Hesquiaht Nation, the term wiwikink’api’ is introduced, which means ‘fighting with no one.’ From there, aikido is presented as both a physical and spiritual practice that teaches non-aggression and balancing forces and it is compared to Verwindung. -

Das AIKIDO von Hirokazu Kobayashi Hirokazu Kobayashi wurde am 14.12.1929 geboren. Bereits im Alter von 7 Jahren fing er mit Karate, Kendo und Judo an. Diese Kampfkünste betrieb er bis ca. 1943. Während des Krieges erlebte er eine Art Wiedergeburt. Sechs Monate vor Kriegsende, als 16jähriger, wurde er als Kamikazepilot auf einem Flugzeugträger eingesetzt. Als es zu seinem Einsatz kam, streikte ein Motor seiner Maschine und er konnte nicht mehr starten, da die Maschine nicht rechtzeitig repariert werden konnte. Alle seine Freunde und Kameraden seiner Staffel kamen ums Leben. Zwölf Stunden vor seinem nächsten »letzten Einsatz« wurde der Flugzeugträger von einem U-Boot torpediert und versank. Er war einer von wenigen Überlebenden, nach vier Tagen im Wasser wurde er schwerverletzt und erschöpft gerettet. Er hatte sich während den vier Tagen an Holzplanken und Fässern festgeklammert. In der Zeit Ende 1945-Anfang 1946, nach dem Krieg, begann Sensei mit Aikido. 1984 in Thonon machte er folgende Angaben auf die Frage wie und wann er mit AIKIDO begonnen hat: H. Kobayashi, Thonon 1984: »Ich übte Kendo, Judo und Karate aus, bevor ich zu Aikido Kontakt bekam. -

It consists of pinning and throwing techniques, practiced against grabbing and striking attacks. All aikido techniques are defensive in nature and there are no matches in aikido, nor any other kind of competition. Practice is done by taking turns defending against attacks, in the strife to master the curriculum. The techniques are also applied against armed attacks: knife, sword and staff. In practice, wooden replicas of those weapons are used. The throwing and pinning techniques of aikido use the power and direction of the attack, instead of any blocking or resistance. The attack is avoided by initial evasive steps and the force of the attack is redirected into the aikido techniques. -
Entrevista a Michel Coquet Sensei
Entrevista a Michel Coquet Sensei París, 19 de Octubre de 2016 Pregunta: Hace muchos años que queríamos hablar con usted, pero no pretendemos ser inoportunos… Respuesta: ¡No, en absoluto! Si os recibo es por voluntad propia y porque quiero dedicaros un poco de tiempo. Sé quiénes sois y el objeto de vuestra investigación me alegra. ¿Por dónde queréis empezar? P –Quisiéramos saber cómo fue su retorno a Francia, después de unos años en el Japón. ¿Se sintió fuera de lugar por la mentalidad francesa? ¿Cómo superó su accidente? R - ¡Bueno, esto son dos preguntas! No tiene sentido hablar de mi rodilla, estaba dañada y me operaron, aunque antes trabajé durante seis meses por cuestiones del seguro. La primera operación fue un fracaso y tuve que someterme a una segunda operación. Lugo me recuperé por mi cuenta y cuando me fue posible comencé a enseñar a algunos amigos y miembros de mi familia. En esa época vivía en Villepinte y mi único dojo era la acera y la calle frente a la casa de mis padres. De esta forma corrió la voz de que yo enseñaba las artes marciales en línea directa del Japón y varios jóvenes vinieron a verme por curiosidad o para entrenar, no había más de diez. P – ¿Queda alguien todavía con usted de esa época? R – Sólo uno, Jean-Louis Mignotet, hoy instructor de Aikido y de sable Katori. ¡Pero ya lo conocéis, es mi alumno más antiguo! Con el tiempo empecé a ser conocido y la ayuda me llegó a través del padre de un alumno que trabajaba en la Federación de Judo y Disciplinas Asociadas. -
