Re: Sparring in Aikido?

Of course, you can always agree to get it to position, but then you never know if it leads to a break, bringing us back to the question.
I'm taking you've never had a guillotine applied on you? You don't need to break someone/s neck or arm to realize you're breaking something. You'd be tapping desperately way before then.

Makes me wonder if the reasons so many systems put a premium on stability is because they want to avoid that situation in the first place.
And yet so little actually bother to train for when it does.
