From liam.reid at sloan.mit.edu Sun Mar 16 03:41:30 2008 From: liam.reid at sloan.mit.edu (Liam Reid) Date: Sun, 16 Mar 2008 14:41:30 +1100 Subject: [Aikido] Mike Sigman demonstrating "internal strength" on google video Message-ID: <000101c88717$9fe14f80$0301a8c0@TOSHIBAR200> This link points to a google video of Mike Sigman, demonstrating what he calls "internal strength" as it's applied in Aikido. It echoes what Brett and Fujimori Sensei has taught us and, while a little slow, I thought it sufficiently interesting to share. There's a piece at the end of the video where Mike effectively negates the effects of nikkyo by channelling the technique into his back leg: a nice trick. Brett's done this several times to me, demonstrating how important it is for nikkyo to be applied in a way that keeps the location of your own centre ambiguous. Somehow I don't think Mike's trick would work in our dojo ;-) http://tinyurl.com/3ygyz8 Looking at Mike's background I see that he is a tai chi practitioner (yang and chen) who did judo, karate and aikido before focusing on tai chi.
