Exploring Yamaguchi Sensei's Heavy Connection: Impressions From Ukemi

At my New Year’s seminar in Los Angeles, we delved into Yamaguchi Sensei's profound "heavy connection" principle. Drawing from the teachings of Takeda Shihan, Yamashima Sensei, and other Aikido masters, we explored how this skill can elevate your practice, whether you’re uke or nage.

This blog breaks down how to apply this advanced concept in your training and take your Aikido to the next level.
