Aiki from Kodo Horikawa #2 Applications & Secrets of Aiki DVD by Tadashi Nomoto

From Sokaku Takeda to Kodo Horikawa, and into the present. What are the techniques of aiki, passed down through generations?

Essential training methods for inheritance, revealed!

“Aiki is a tangible technique. This is why I believe it can be passed down through generations,” says Master Tadashi Nomoto, fully licensed instructor of the Koshinkai.

Not abstract theory or rote repetition for self-realization, but a clear, detailed explanation of the mechanisms and training methods of aiki. This is the much-anticipated second volume DVD of the series.

Volume 2: Techniques of Transformation and Mastery

Following the first volume, this DVD meticulously explains the training methods that transition from jujutsu to aiki, the application of hand-based aiki, and the techniques of Aikijujutsu.
