Hi Shaun,
I think it is actually the opposite, Dan is teaching in quite detail how to develope aiki . or we can say the way of aiki. He is also teaching how to use aiki but that is secondary, one has to develope aiki before you can use it.After thirty years of aikido practice we need to get back to the roots.
