STUDY GROUP TOMIKI AIKIDO Friday 15th May, 2015
STUDY GROUP TOMIKI AIKIDO – Friday 15th May, 2015Today we were joined by members from Bulgaria, Spain, Switzerland and England UK.We looked at in some detail the position and placement of the leading foot in terms of theoverall stability of the whole body.This evolved into the idea of gripping the mat with the feet, rather like the TomTomNavigator windscreen fixing.
This concept also applies to the shape of the "Cupped" hand when locating with the chin (inthis case) of your partner.This clearly also applies to the elbow and other areas/joints of your partner.We used the combination of Outside Turn and Inside Sweep to form a pair orientatedexercise, which stimulated whole body movement, giving and receiving etc.In this reciprocal study opportunities for Oshitaoshi and Kotegashi soon evolved.Some study of soft-touch was explored when applied to Shomenate and Gyakugamaeate.Afterwards a small celebration forRia Buyck reaching the fine age of**.More Study Group sessions Saturday and Sunday.
STUDY GROUP TOMIKI AIKIDO – Saturday 16th May, 2015We started our session at 2.00pm with Kiko exercises and continued with pair exercisesbased around Outside Turn and Inside Sweep.This led us to make a start on Junanahon Ura Waza techniques. Some interesting ideasevolved as we focused on their depth and not so much on the Choreography.We finished early so that we could spend time commemorating the life of ChristianGaddam, a Study Group member who died suddenly recently.

STUDY GROUP TOMIKI AIKIDO – Sunday 17th May, 2015STUDY GROUP TOMIKI AIKIDO Sunday 17th May 2015We started the session at 10.00am with Kiko exercises and with detailed explanations.Once more we worked on our pair exercise using Outside Turn and Inside Sweep. The focusthis morning was about both participants stretching in a complementary way.
This conveniently led us to the solo exercise of Inside Sweep Turn, a sequence omitted fromthe currently preferred Tegatana Doza movements.Here the stretching of the body is important in order to effectively turn under the raisedhand.This solo exercise is fundamental to the final two techniques of the Junanahon Ura Waza.We continued to study these at length, reinforcing various important elements.Push through the body not just at the point of contact.To demonstrate this principle one partner opened their arms in a "crucifix" position whilstthe other pushed through the shoulder line. If the focus is on the point of contact (thehand), the resistance to movement is greater than if the focus is on the opposite hand. It isas if there is an internal line through the arm, shoulders and arm to the farthest hand. Themind must focus on the distant hand and not on the touched hand.Finally we looked at the presentation.Grasp the movement, not the posture!To understand this is important as the two approaching players make physical contact.There must be no delay to allow the posture to settle.
Congratulations Nadja Van Sandt on reaching brown belt at the Study Group Grading thisweekend!Well deserved.
