Re: Aikido IP/IS: Advanced Expositions in Centripetal Force

Nikkyo is not evil. The way these guys are practicing it it looks ineffective...but not evil.

Nikkyo is a way to learn about pain and injury and submission and relaxing into effective technique.

The way Nikkyo is being practiced in this video most people could just take their hands out of the grip...a technique to neutralize it is not needed.
