Thanks for the link anyway! Didn't realize there were some quality DVD material out there. Had looked, but hadn't found anything that seemed overly trustworthy (for what I was looking for). And it's so difficult finding Yoshinkan stuff ._.'

Interesting! But I'm a little confused, aren't the upcoming "Aikido: My Spiritual Journey" the same? That's released in November if I'm not mistaken...

I believe that "Aikido: My Spiritual Journey" is based on Aikido Shugyo, which was published in English by Shindokan books several years ago. The new book, Aikido Jinsei, is a different book.

EXCELLENT DVDs are published by Quest from Japan. Their website leaves something to be desired, but they have some great DVDs. Some are dubbed in English (some by Robert Mustard) and other are only in Japanese. The shops on the net are reselling the Quest stuff.
