Hi all,

I wanted to get some feed back on this jo kata chart. I feel that there may be some variation in the kata at different schools, and some subtlety in the movements that I didn't capture here. So I'd appreciate any feedback you may have:

the one I practice feels similar to this one by Duncan Francis:

Looks like the standard Iwama 13 kata, at least it's big movements. No offense but the style of drawing does not seem to capture subtlety. Here is a good way of doing it:

Jo kata does vary from different style of Aikido, respectively.
It does basically the show the same concept of deflecting/disable your opponent from attacks.
Pictures does define 1,000 words at least. You can almost see yourself doing it, if you use your imagination. Well done.

Obviously a labour of love, thanks

Indeed! Compiling the Aiki Ken, next, to be followed by Ken Jo no Riai. Whew!

HI Jerome Kalkhof
I hope you are fine. I copy the Iwama 13 Steps ( JIU SAN TAISABAKI BOKKEN) and I print. Thank you for the Drawings. Reynaldo Ligoro Albano, Ju Dojo

HI Jerome Kalkhof, Thank you that I see the difference between the Jo Uchi and Bokken Uchi because of this JIU SAN JO KATACHI. Take care always. Reynaldo Albano, JUDOJO

I really like the drawings, very nice. Your guy does have bad posture though, his back is too curved inward. Also Yon to Go, doesn't look like a hasso gaeshi. That might be your intention and just a different variation of what I do.

Really nice though.

Hi Sensei Chris Hein, I did read and see your video in www.aikidostudent.com and www.centralvalleyaikido.com that is nice and fine to my dojo waza. Although we differ from some point, but some I applied. Please take care always. From; JUDOJO
