AikiWeb Aikido Forums - View Single Post - Poll: How often do you slide your feet along the ground while moving as nage in aikido?

AKAKAK · 07-20-2003, 10:27 AM

I have training in Yoshinkan aikido in the past and it seems that this style trains with much emphasis on sliding your feet on the ground. I have also visited different dojos and there is no emphasis on sliding your feet.

Can anyone comment on this way of training? I love Yoshinkan aikido but how practical is sliding your feet when outside your dojo?

Cheers,

Andersen
