Aikido

This clip shows the beautiful, flowing techniques of aikido.

Since I don't do aikido, I can' tell you exactly, but it does seem to me to be from different styles of the art.

At least the first portion seems to be one of the harder styles, like Yoseikan or Yoshinkan aikido.

You'll also see various weapon defenses and some moves akin to "sparring" (exchanging techniques).

You can view the clip here (7.28 MB, flv file)

You'll be needing the free flv-player to view flv clips on your own computer (it's a quick and safe install).
