Re: Aikido vs. Kickboxing (video)
Very nice Demo
As to those who complained on not doing it faster or with resistence. Seeig this demp I was reminded of my teacher reharsing for a similar demo when I was starting to learn. He took one of his Advanced Aikido & Karate students (My teacher teaches both, and judo, for over 30 years) and worked with him on the show, They started workign faster and faster, my teacher did a technique on a kick, the student did not respond in time. I think they actually did the show in the end, but much, much slower.
The falls from kicks are nasty, and knee locks in those situations are even moe dangerous then on the ground.
Thus, this was a Great demo.
