Combat Ready Aikido Skills DVD by Ryoichiro Higa - Used Self Defense Training Video for Martial Arts Practice & Home Defense

Product Description

Rare instructional DVD from Yoshinkan Aikido Kairyukan, focused on self-defense techniques. 

The DVD covers various self-defense scenarios including:

• Defense against frontal blade strikes/slashes
• Defense against sideways blade cuts
• Responses to collar grabs (both with and without follow-up attacks)
• Defense against punches
• Escaping from rear strangulation
• Breaking free from rear bear hugs
• Defending against front kicks
• Countering front hugs/grabs
• Defense against frontal blade thrusts
• Defense against stick attacks
• Defense against reverse-side blade cuts
• Throwing techniques (Sokumen Iriminage)
• Joint locks (Elbow Clamp Hijishime)
• Getting started with practice

Master Higa has trained under me for about eight years and is currently the director of Okinawa Kairyukan. Master Higa himself has recently created a DVD called "Self-Defense Techniques and Practical Ready-to-Go Techniques." The techniques, which are based on the fundamentals of Yoshinkan Aikido, will be useful for many martial arts practitioners and will allow them to see a new side of Aikido. So I would like to offer my recommendation here.
