your number one technique
with all the discussion that come up about "how effective is aikido?" or "does this really work?" what are your guy number on techniques for using
I mean using out of the dojo, either if you are playing with a person from another style or actually fighting for me, out of my aikido arsenal i would take irimi nage, i find it fast, effective and most importantly versitlie, i can change the size of the movement from very large to very small (very small is where i would want to be using it most of the time but that is a point for another thread) also it is easy to throw in a knee or a strike during the technique so what would you use from your aikido arsenal, and can we keep it real here, i know that aikido has alot of breathing and ki extension techniques that people love to use as a get out of jail free card in questions like this. but can we actually talk about practical techniques |
Re: your number one technique
Front legs... kote gaeshi
Hind legs....nikkyo :D Oh I don't generally play with other people outside of the dojo. Someone could get hurt. Horses OTOH are rather fun. |
Re: your number one technique
You use the technique the fits the situation. You can't force any one technique into a random situation. That wouldn't be "Aiki".

Re: your number one technique
Yep!

Re: your number one technique
Most practical technique to use in a fight..... running..
...as fast & as far as necessary to be safe. dps |

Re: your number one technique
Avoid if you can, hit hard and wrap 'em up if you can't...

Re: your number one technique
If you go into a fight situation with a `planned technique ` you will probably fail, take it as it comes....your favourite ukemi may be all you need as you hit the deck...

The interesting point is that a very small number of techniques tends to be used in the same Randori (particular partner), even though multiple attacks and timing situations exist in it (a common randori in our dojo lasts over 5 minutes, and includes a few dozens of encounters of which about half end in a technique, or a counter technique). Then on the next Randori, another group of a few techniques, which may not overlap, is being used more commonly. I do not have "real life experience", but, if I assume the Randori is indicative, I would have to agree with Chris - the technique I precieve at that very moment to be best suited to the situation.

Aware and prepare.

Re: your number one technique
My favorite technique is a blank look. :D

Re: your number one technique
Right hook. Seriously though, having worked in a secure detention facility for a year I found various incarnations of Ude Garame to be quite effective. As a result, it has become a go-to technique.

Re: your number one technique
I agree with "avoid and run"...
sometimes it's just good to show how nice you can talk and save your aikido techniques for the dojo :) in any case.. do Ikkyo and then just run away... |
Re: your number one technique
:rolleyes: :eek: :hypno: :crazy: :yuck: :drool: :blush: :( :eek:
As I run away and realise that my assailants can run faster......:eek: what then? Ooooohhhh S***t !!!!!!! |

Hard atemi first with immediate take down is the only real alternative...... Very similar to what you see in the cage, except you don't get a warning or the order to fight from the referee..... The only difference being is you don't stay on the deck if you can help it as that can be an opening for his oppos!! It can be rough out there so avoid it at all costs if you can, stay aware, but be prepared to fight if you can't, either way your're bound to get a bit pasted, unless you are lucky and get the first one in..... :straightf |

Re: your number one technique
well I was shoved to the ground recently during randori. . He put his hands on my chest and tried to shove me down. I grabbed his hands did a nice back fall and rolled completely over. He landed on his back and i landed kneeling next to him and still had a hold of his hand to my chest. After realizing what had just happened and that I still had his arm I immediately put my knee under his elbow and sat down.... HAHA I thought to myself that was sheer luck! I am completely inexperienced in randori. I just rememered this guys previous lecture about if you see an elbow then bend it however you can. so I did.

Rik ( my son ) was quietly walking home from a night out. Three yobs were giving some poor girls serious grief, as Rik approached, he politely asked ( he is always polite ) the yobs to leave the girls alone, they then turned on him, as he walked backwards stating those famous words " I don't want any trouble " which of course he knew they would take as weakness, he had his hands in the air as he walked backwards ( for possible CTV ) they attacked him, he knocked two out and the third backed off. They were punching and never made contact. Rik's only injury was a broken hand, which resulted in the cancellation of 3 forthcoming fights..He then walked the young ladies safely home. So, walking away from bullies can be very dangerous..... Henry Ellis Aikido in MMA http://rik-ellis.blogspot.com/ |
Re: your number one technique
What an un-aiki behaviour!
You should scold your son before is too late, he's acting like a gentleman. If you dont bring him back to the right path of aiki as soon as possible, before you notice he coud go into the nefarious ways of scholarship. Imagine the disgrace for the aikido world if people started to consider your son "a gentleman and a scholar". Him being a fighter is not enough? |

I have been in a similar situ where a fight broke out between some nob and his girlfriend in the back of my cab one night...... This nob went too far and started beating her up, I just had to step in at risk and also injury to myself as well, as we were fighting halfway in and out of the cab!!!!, I managed to grab his ear and yanked him out of the cab to see to him, when I eventually got him out he did a runner!! Leaving me to deal with a very badly beaten young lady who I had to take to A&E...... Not very nice and very ugly..... honestly if people only really knew the reality out there...... It's a bloody zoo at times..... It may seem surreal to most but it's reality to me...... What really pissed me off is I got no thanks (no fare) for my effort :rolleyes: Just a lot of tears, hysteria and how he was such a bastard.......:hypno: :disgust: Reality sucks..... amen :straightf |

Re: your number one technique
As previously mentioned by a few here, you just don't plan a technique in an actual physical confrontation - your conditioned training just takes over and your actions are unconscious responses to the forces coming into you. Also keep in mind, that techniques are just examples of the principles and concepts behind them - you do not apply a technique you apply the concept that it represents.
In my practical experience with actual conflicts, my conditioned impulse is an irimi to get beside and/or behind the attack - once there, you have many options. Just My Opinion Greg |
Re: your number one technique
What I have found is that despite what people may favor, what typically 'comes out' of my students is whatever they have practiced the most, and the most recently.

Re: your number one technique
1) Talk
2) Run 3) Ikkajo everything else is ............... for fun. :) |
Re: your number one technique
My number one and favourite technique would be Iriminage. It is quick and effective.
