Jakob, it seems to me that when you say "Aikido in Sweden", you actually mean "Iwama style aikido". You Iwama guys make up one third or one fourth of us, so I would not put an "=" between these two terms.
Relax Hanna, I'm not and if you re-read my post you'll see I didn't. Most of my experience outside of our dojowalls has been in with teachers that were not associated with Iwama, and it still has been my experience as I wrote it that morotedori kokyoho is the starter and suwariwaza kokyoho is the closer. But I havn't been in all places around in

Sweden, to state the obvious, so I can't speek for all of us, but I do think that you were refering to kokyoho and not kokyonage. Were I wrong?
