Hi Walter,

I do remember Rocky saying that, and for understanding Rocky's Aikido,it worked well. Older styles like Daito Ryu, Yonkajo was a separate set of kata that was I guess considered higher level but it stood alone. For basic CAF 5th kyu, I saw Ikkyo as the primary position, Nikyo slipped over top the elbow and Sankyo slipped underneath the elbow, Yonkyo was a variation of morote dori. I think eventually after all the variations there wouldn't be a wrong way to grab at the moment of contact, so never any mistakes to recover from. I tend to not train for how to recover and oops moment so much as just move and take what is there.
