The Essence of Aiki DVD with Hiro Iida

Posture, breathing, and open hands— Approaching the essence of ancient Japanese martial arts born from doing nothing!

How did the legendary master in Japanese martial arts history use these words? In this DVD, Hiro Iida, a direct disciple of the eternal master Sokudo Horikawa who inherited all the secret techniques of So Kagaku, carefully introduces their true meaning.

Natural posture and slow breathing. And immediate technique upon touching.

Starting with doing nothing, the Aikido techniques that can be pursued by martial artists of all ages and genders are introduced in an easy-to-understand manner.
