Clip by watanabe FYI, this Watanabe sensei is apparently an 8th Dan teacher, but I am unsure what school he belongs too.
At 0.54" - 1.00" part of the clip, I am baffled... What the hell is he doing?
I have done many years on aikido from Tomiki to Hombu to Yoshinkan, and I have never come across my teachers doing these things to me or my fellow dojo mates.
My question to members of aikiweb, what is your verdict, are these type of no touch throw fake aikido?
If any of you guys/gals are student of Sensei Watanabe, your inputs are welcomed.
Boon.
