Re: Aikido Principles for BJJ
Brian, not sure there really is any pure BJJ out there! Just like in aikido, each instructor or school seems to have their own version or take on the game!
Funny you should mention Judo. Seems like these days that many of the guys I train with in BJJ are spending a fair amount of time with good judoka!
My instructor, from Brazil, has encouraged me to have my 7 year old son start with judo, and not BJJ.
Next month, he and I both are strapping on our white belts for yet entry into another new art, Judo.
In my school in Germany, we have several judoka and we all share the best from both those arts when we train. Mainly throws from judo and the newaza from BJJ.
