The cornerstone of the Art of Nihon Goshin Aikido is the idea of the 50 Classical Techniques.


The Classical Techniques: “Katas” by another name.    Aikido training begins with repeated practice of kata until the waza are sufficiently...  




Why Nihon Goshin Aikido Practices its Classical Techniques (Katas) in a Shizentai (Neutral Stance) instead of in a Hamni Stance Like Other Aikido Associations
