Re: Aikido Shioda on Youtube

Hmm, interesting to know. To be sure, to teach the techniques first and let the student puzzle out the core body skills later, is not an unusual teaching method; in martial arts history the "internal schools" where the body skills are emphasized at beginner levels are a minority I think rather than the norm. It's very interesting that aikido can be taught either way depending on ryuha and you end up with high level practitioners either way.

Much thanks Ron and Vincent.
