This is offtopic but somehow I remember that when I joined this forum couple of years ago noone spoke so much of Newaza within Aikido context... most believed that keeping the fight standing up is very easy...

Greg... how do you do this provoking? I know in theory it is easy to lure your opponent into overcommited pattern that you expect. In practice I've seen noone under 10 years of practice and nidan who at least looked like he/she could do something like that.

My fighting experiences say to me that you can only count on what you do. Never on what you think your opponent will.

I'm really not trying to provoke but I'm really curious...
