Nice clip of Aikibudo. This how we practice in our dojo.

I don't see anything different in this either (other than maybe the sutemi, although come to think of it I've been taught that a few times, just rarely)?? What are we supposed to be looking at? -- it doesn't look any different than the AIkido I'm used to.
Not only does the video show the sutemi waza, but it also shows the atemi waza. Notice the atemi waza after the person is on the ground. They apply a strike. The aggressiveness is much greater, there is even one instance of a choking kind of grab. The PACIFISM does not exist. Aikikai would never advocate using a striking move when the opponent is on the ground, there are a lot of differences.
