Elevating Ikkyo: Embrace Posture and Tatami Transition for Success

Are you looking to enhance your ikkyo technique while prioritizing proper posture and protecting your knees? At our Aikido Summer Seminar in Los Angeles, we explored the art of maintaining good posture while transitioning to the tatami, ensuring both technique effectiveness and physical well-being.

During the seminar, participants were encouraged to maintain their posture as they lowered themselves to the tatami while executing ikkyo. By embodying this movement, practitioners not only enhance their entrance perspective but also safeguard their knees from abrupt impacts.

In this video, we unveil the secrets to elevating your ikkyo technique through the maintenance of posture and mindful tatami transitions. Discover how this approach can contribute to effective techniques and a long-lasting, injury-free Aikido journey.
