Re: Overly Compliant Uke - Belief in Non-existent power
I've seen tanking - I've even been asked (told) to tank. And yes, there are certainly some instructors who believe their own press releases a little too much.
That doesn't mean that everybody does it, or even that everything that looks fake is fake - but it's a little too common for my own personal sense of comfort.
OTOH - it's not just an Aikido problem, I've seen it in a lot of martial arts.
Best,
Chris
