Training in Aikido
2008-04-17 19:16:00 Training in aikido should improve ones life, not keep one from experiencing life. Training is done through reciprocated technique, where the focus is on entering and blending (harmonizing) with the attack, rather than on meeting force with force. Uke, the receiver of the technique, usually initiates an attack against nage (also referred to as tori or shite depending on Aikido style), who neutralizes it with an aikido technique. Trainees ought to endeavor to observe proper etiquette at all times. It is proper to bow when entering and leaving the dojo, and when coming onto and leaving the mat. Training in aikido includes observation and adaptation of both physical and psychological patterns of thought and behavior. In particular, you must pay attention to the way you react to various sorts of circumstances. Students progress in learning how to [blend] those elements with speed, timing and fluidity of movements, in the spirit of the early time of Morihei Ueshiba O Sensei’s &ldquo...

My 100th Post! "Taekwondo v Aikido"
2008-04-04 03:08:00 Many styles (as well as Taekwondo) include some basic handlocks, throws, and breakfalls. The initial style in which I started training (it wasn't in Taekwondo) included two handlocks (Kotegaeshi and nikyo), 4 throws (shoulder throws, a hip throw, and a fireman's lift throw), and some crazy breakfalls.My time with the American Karate and Taekwondo Organisation saw me cross train in Aiki (mainly without being graded) for about 3-4 years. In that time I did take the 9th kyu grading and of course participated in many mixed sessions. Having that 9th kyu list, a fertile mind, and the chance to expand my Taekwondo syllabus, I initially thought some 10+ years ago to add the requirements within the TKD 5th and 4th kyu syllabus. Breakfalls were included from white belt but the major Aiki techniques were arbitrarily thrown to the green and blue belts.I hated that arrangement. It was non-harmonious with the way students learn -- it was Taekwondo until here and then these cool but bizarre tech...

New Aikido Training Video
2008-01-22 00:53:00 Dr. Jeff Albright of Rocky Mountain Wellness in Castle Rock, Colorado recently released a 40 minute instructional Aikido martial arts DVD. This DVD is a high quality demonstration of the fundamental techniques of the Japanese martial art of Aikido.

Power vs Force in Aikido: How to amass great power in your life.
2008-01-19 00:41:00 Many people seek out martial arts as a means to creating more power in their lives. Power, of course, can be defined in many ways. Some people are seeking self-empowerment in the form of self-improvement, self-discipline, or self-esteem, while others may be seeking power or control over others. Martial arts can be a very a good place to discover power. However, more often than not what people end up learning is not true power, but force. Many martial arts teachers do not really understand the difference between power and force, or worse, think they are the same things. As such, the student ends up creating more resistance in their life, instead of more power and he or she never learns to truly generate power.In Aikido, your objective should be on generating power. Most people tend to think that the fastest way to power is through force. Not true. Short-term power can be generated through force. However, that power is one-dimensional and usually doesn't last. It could be argued that...
Add more power, value and meaning to your life with Aikido!
2008-01-14 00:45:00 By Sean HannonI have practiced the Japanese martial art of Aikido, in one form or another, for over 10 years. At first glance I always thought that I practiced Aikido for self-defense or just because it was fun. However, I was recently listening to a recording by peak performance coach Anthony Robbins. Tony was discussing what he calls "The Six Human Needs." In this recording he articulates how all humans have six basic needs that must be met on some level. Some of these needs appear to be in conflict with one another, but, in fact, are not. I suddenly realized how, for me, Aikido meets all of these six human needs!The first two human needs appear to be in conflict with each other, but are actually complementary. The first is the need for certainty. That is, people require some degree of predictability in their lives on a daily or almost daily basis in order to function. One form of certainty could be physical security or safety. Being a defensive martial art, Aikido would...

Make Friends Fast with Aikido!
2007-12-18 13:45:00 When adults move to a new town or state, it can be difficult to make new friends. It is not uncommon for people to go through months and months of social isolation. This can lead to loneliness and depression, but over time, people slowly rebuild a new social network. That can be a tough experience for almost anyone. However, there is no reason to wait. Some more outgoing people may make an effort to attend activities like public lectures on interesting subject or things like that in an effort to meet new people. But more often than not, most people usually go to those kinds of events in pre-existing clicks and are often opposed to venturing outside their own groups or unwilling to let new people in to theirs. One of the reasons why events like these don't work so well as a way to meet people is that the event is usually passive (like listening to a lecture) and does not engage others or encourage others to socialize outside of their pre-existing social groups. Aikido, on the other ...
Mistakes: The Key to Speeding Up your Aikido Training
2007-12-10 14:39:00 The fastest, most expedient way to learn Aikido is not to be prepared, but to make mistakes… a lot of mistakes. The more mistakes you make, the faster you will progress in your training. Our brains assign cause and effect through contrasting experiences. An improperly executed technique is contrasted with a properly executed technique. The "gap" or distance between the two experiences creates "perspective" in the brain and within that gap is where learning occurs. The more out-of-place you feel, the faster you will viscerally internalize the techniques and the lessons they contain. If you think about it, you have probably experienced this in other areas of your life. Haven't your greatest lessons in your life been the product of mistakes more so that successes? Early 20th century success researcher, Napoleon Hill, states that the key to success in any endeavor is failure. So if you want to progress your Aikido training faster then come to class and make more mistakes! Ju...

Castle Rock AIKIDO dojo logo
2007-11-06 13:32:00 Samurai were a class of Japanese military nobility who served a feudal lord and/or the Japanese Emperor. The word samurai derives from the Japanese verb "samorau," which means "to serve." Samurai came into power as a warrior class in the early 12th century and were subsequently disbanned, virtually becoming extinct, in the late 1880s with the fall of the feudal system of Japan and the rise of industry and westernization. Born and raised in Kitakyushu, a town in the Southern Japan Prefecture of Fukuoka, Miho Shiraki Sensei is a descendant of a long line of samurai warriors of feudal Japan. Growing up, Miho had heard stories about her family's ancestors being pacifist, Shinto priests. What she didn't really know until recently was why did those ancestors become Shinto priests in the first place? Miho's mother told her about samurai of the Shiraki family who had left the samurai class and became pacifists to atone for their violent past. Sometime between 1100 and 1800 lived this sam...
Founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba
2007-10-26 18:28:00 Morihei Ueshiba was one of history's greatest martial artists. Even at age eighty, he could disarm any foe, down any number of attackers, and even pin an opponent with a single finger. Although virtually invincible as a warrior, he was, above all, a man of peace who detested fighting, war and any kind of violence. His way was that of Aikido, "the art of peace." He is referred to as O Sensei, "the great teacher."Morihei Ueshiba spent his youth and early adulthood training under a variety of sword and Jujutsu masters. As he grew older he experienced increasing disquiet stemming, in part, from his rather violent youth, feeling that training for the sake of winning was not enough. One day, after a long, arduous period of training and meditation, he came to recognize an innate understanding that the true purpose of the martial arts was to be the promotion of universal peace and love. He saw that the ideal victory was a conflict resolved without winner or loser. He began to change his ma...
Getting Centered with Aikido (Expansion Part 5)
2007-10-21 16:50:00 By Jeff Albright Sensei and Sean Hannon"The key to good technique is to keep your hands, feet and hips straight and centered. If you are centered, you can move freely. The physical center is your belly; if your mind is set there as well, you are assured of victory in any endeavor."- Morihei UeshibaAikido teaches us to move, feel and, to some extent, think from our center or what the Japanese call our "hara." It is the place that we are strongest. It is the origin of our power. Our core is where we are eternally abundant. Physiologically, our core is our viscera our gut and it is where our real strength comes from. Many think big muscles are where strength comes from. However, big muscles don't work if the lungs and heart aren't strong enough to pump blood to those big muscles.Fear produces a neurological response in the body call "fight or flight." This is also known as a sympathetic response. During a fight or flight response blood is shunted away from the internal organs - the h...
Aikido & Abundance (Expansion Part 4)
2007-10-18 21:48:00 By Jeff Albright Sensei and Sean Hannon "If your opponent strikes with fire, counter with water, becoming completely fluid and free-flowing. Water, by its nature, never collides with or breaks against anything. On the contrary, it swallows up any attack harmlessly." – Morihei UeshibaAs we learned in Part Two of this article on expansion, Aikido is so much more than just a martial art. It is a whole way of life. Indeed, those who practice Aikido quickly learn that it is, in fact, a microcosmic arena for life. When regular daily problems at home or at work come up most people do the same thing as most martial arts teach. They push back, contract, shrink – they shift into a defensive posture. Sometimes they contract into adverse behaviors like excessive television watching, alcohol or overeating. Others contract by complaining, gossiping, hiding or ignoring their predicament. Aikido teaches us to address our challenges differently.Is expansion a natural response? Think o...
Reprogramming Inborn Reflexes - lessons from Aikido (Expansion Part 3)
2007-10-16 18:00:00 By Jeff Albright Sensei and Sean Hannon"When an opponent comes forward, move in and greet him;if he wants to pull back, send him on his way."– Morihei UeshibaAikido challenges us to evolve beyond primitive, instinctual survival mechanisms and reflexes that are taught in so many other forms of martial arts. For example, many Aikido students ask, "Why does Aikido take so long to master?" This is a valid question because Aikido does, in many cases, take much longer to master than other martial arts. In Aikido, we strive inwardly for self-perfection by training ourselves to utilize higher levels in the brain; to reprogram seemingly-contradictory, yet ironically, more sophisticated levels of thinking, non-thinking and other societally-conditioned responses into our unconscious mind.An Aikido student must learn to break inborn reflexes that are culturally reinforced by society and replace those reflexes with new ones. When someone pulls us, we usually automatically respond by pulling ba...
Expansion Part 2: Aikido & Budo
2007-10-04 16:52:00 By Jeff Albright Sensei and Sean Hannon"True budo calls for bringing the inner energy of the Universe in order, protecting the peace of the world as well as preserving everything in nature in its right form."– Morihei UeshibaThe novice martial artist sees martial arts merely as a fighting system – a means of self-defense. He understands only one-dimension of the word "martial." Martial, in the strictest sense of the word, means "associated with war." Therefore, to the novice martial artist, martial only means "the art of war" or "the art of fighting." For them, that is where the meaning stops. There is no evolution. There is no more growth. The master martial artist, on the other hand, understands this rudimentary definition of "martial" and expands it.The master martial artist recognizes the inherent responsibilities of the martial arts and ultimately adopts the concept of budo or martial way into his or her life. The martial way is very different from that of martial combat. F...
Expansion Part 1: Aikido & Self-defense
2007-10-04 01:21:00 By Jeff Albright Sensei and Sean Hannon"A good stance and posture reflect a proper state of mind."- Morihei UeshibaWhen most people think of "martial arts" one of the first things that to come to mind is the idea of "self-defense." When I think of someone defending themselves I tend to think of some one contracting, closing up, or hunkering down into a defensive stance. I also think the word defense represents a reaction to fear. Fear is always a function of contraction and is often met with defensive-oriented actions such as scratching, clawing, punching and kicking. Of course, there isn't anything wrong with these actions. There may be times in life when these become necessary. At other times, like in social environments, this lashing out may not necessarily take the form of physical strikes but, instead, may manifest as unnecessary, insensitive or sometimes even rude verbal attacks, glares or gestures.The art of Japanese Aikido is a martial art like many others. However, the org...
"True Victory is Self-Victory" Aikido Explained
2007-09-24 00:05:00 "True victory is self-victory."– Morihei Ueshiba What is Aikido? Aikido is a powerful martial art developed throughout the mid 20th century by a Japanese named Morihei Ueshiba. Aikido differs from most other martial arts in that the practitioner seeks to achieve self-defense without injury to attackers. Furthermore, there are no tournaments or sport applications in Aikido. Therefore, Aikido is non-competitive.Generally speaking, Aikido is most often practiced with a partner where one person functions as an attacker and the other person practices defensive Aikido techniques. About half of the techniques involve joint locks which enable the "attacker" to be moved to a pinning position where they can be held without injury. Other techniques involve throwing the partner. An Aikido student spends much time learning how to fall safely. Proper falling is a fundamental component to the practice of Aikido.The basic movements of Aikido are circular in nature. Most attacks are linear. An Aik...

Men's "center" vs. Women's "center" in Aikido Practice: A Student's Observa
2007-08-28 06:16:00 It seems to me that there are substantially more men who practice Aikido than women. However, I have observed that women who practice Aikido tend to pick up the subtleties of Aikido's techniques a bit faster than men do. I always wondered why that was? Is it possible that women have a physiologic affinity for Aikido? What might that affinity be?While in grad school, the answer to that question came to me one day in a biomechanics class. It appears there may be a very logical, physics-based answer to my inqury. In Aikido, the power of each technique originates from the hips and pelvic area, not from the hands and arms as so many young Aikido students think. Most men tend to carry their gravitational center in their chest. As such, they also tend to carry their psychological center in their chest. I think it explains why there exists the Hollywood "broad-chested" male hero archetype. Just look at any male comic book or cartoon hero and what do you see? Usually it is an overdeveloped ...
The "Heart-Path" of Aikido
2007-08-15 23:34:00 What is Doushin Juku?While our formal dojo name is Castle Rock Aikido, we also use the Japanese name "Doushin Juku." Dou = Way / PathShin = Heart / MindJuku = SchoolThe following is an exerpt from a book in progress by Albright Sensei.Many years ago I moved to Japan. Still a white belt (4th kyu), I began training at four different Aikido dojo simultaneously. Seeing how committed I was to art, Iio Sensei (pronounced 'ee'-'yo') invited me to the Spring Gasshuku. Gasshuku is a nine-day seminar held on the island of Shodoshima, a beautiful resort area in the center of the bay near Osaka. Gasshuku means "everyone staying under one roof." I felt quite privileged being the only foreigner permitted at Gasshuku among nearly two-hundred Aikidoka (Aikido students). Sasaki Sensei led many of the daily workout sessions. Sasaki Sensei (a sort of Deepak Chopra of Japan) finished one of our four daily sessions with musubi - the connection techniques we focus on in our Wednesday evening classes ...
Shiragami Sensei and Albright Sensei: A Shared Vision for Aikido
2007-08-14 15:36:00 Jeff Albright Sensei and wife Miho Shiraki Sensei recently visited their Shisho (a.k.a. mentor), Junichiro Shiragami Shihan in Japan. Shiragami Shihan currently lives in the Wakayama Prefecture of Japan, where he also runs his Aikido dojo. Coincidentally, the Wakayama Prefecture is also the birthplace of the founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba. Shiragami Shihan has recently joined the ranks of only a handful of full-time professional Aikido instructors in Japan. He had previously owned and operated a printing company until he achieved his dojo's goal of having over 100 students, at which time he sold his successful business, and chose to place his full attention on teaching the art of Aikido.Dr. Albright received one-on-one-training from Shiragami Shihan while on a recent trip to Japan visiting Miho's family. Shiragami Sensei's technique is an amazing dichotomy of power and softness. Throughout each and every executed technique he constantly monitors and readjusts to his partner'...
Hiking Mountains and Practicing Aikido Prepare One for the Ups and Downs in
2007-08-11 14:13:00 Miho Shiraki Sensei, a native of Japan, recently visited her old stomping grounds… literally! For over 10 years, Miho would take up her walking stick each month and hike the Sasaguri Shikoku. This is a famous trek started by the Buddhist Monk, Kobo Daishi, which makes its way in a circle to 88 spiritual sites. The most famous of these treks is on the island of Shikoku, thus the name Sasaguri Shikoku. Sasaguri is a mountainous region just between Fukuoka and Kitakyushu on the Southern island of Kyushu.This type of Shugyo, or forging of the spirit, is not as common among youngsters of today, yet Miho religiously took up the task every month for more than a decade. This type of training has come in handy, preparing her to endure the ups and downs in daily life. She equates these long treks to her Aikido training, as developing one's character is a lifelong goal of hers.If you would like to learn more about the ancient pilgrimage, Sasaguri Shikiku, click here.To understand how the pr...
The Strongest Technique in Aikido by Miho Albright
2007-08-10 13:51:00 What is the strongest technique in the martial art of Aikido? I'll bet that every Aikido student has thought of this question at least once. We learn many different techniques in our Aikido practice, but which one is the strongest? The first technique? The forth? An arm bar? Wrist lock? Or maybe, a hip throw? To help answer this question, I'd like to share one of my favorite stories about Aikido.One curious student asks his master this question, "Sensei, what is the strongest technique in Aikido?" The master responds, "The greatest technique in Aikido is the ability to become friends with the one who attacked you."I believe this is the essence of Aikido. Aikido is often translated as "the art of harmony," and that is why an Aikido dojo has such a different feeling to it than many other kinds of martial arts schools. Through Aikido, we learn to create harmony... not conflict. It is a great feeling to recognize that we can choose to be harmonious with any given situation, rather tha...

Aikido: Basic Techniques of Aikido
2007-06-01 19:10:00 “The way of the harmonious spirit,†or Aikido, is an unusual form in the world of martial arts. Relatively young, having been developed in the beginning of this century, Aikido seeks to integrate the body and mind and find ultimate peace, both externally and internally. Aikido’s creator, Morihei Ueshiba, had a simple goal: to combine his martial arts studies, his personal philosophy, and his religious beliefs into one unified system for daily living. As Ueshiba said, “to control Aggression without inflicting injury is the Art of Peace.â€Â      That belief of not injuring one’s opponent is the central focus on this martial art form steeped in samurai traditions and updated to suit modern lives. In fact, there are no offensive moves in Aikido. Instead, this martial art form focuses on entering into the opponent’s attack and re-directing their energy rather than meeting force with force. Along these lines, Aikido consists mainly of body throws, to remove the opponent ...
