VIDEO: AIKIDO - Creating a vacuum to BRING your partner TO the fall

Do you sometimes try to create a vacuum during your Aikido training? Giving uke the feeling that a rug is being pulled out from under them?

Today’s video is another from our New Year’s seminar in Los Angeles a couple months ago.

I find that lots of us try to push our partner to throw them. It’s human nature really. But it often results in not being able to move your partner.

So it can be very helpful sometimes to also practice creating a vacuum to draw your partner into a fall.

I hope today’s video will give you some insight, inspiration, and motivation to help you make the most of your training and take your Aikido to the next level.
