Traditional Aikido vol. 3

 

Traditional Aikido volume 3 begins the presentation of the vast subject of taijutsu, that is, the empty-handed techniques of aikido. To quote from the foreword to Volume 3:

 

“The techniques in this book were picked entirely at the discretion of the author who sought, in selecting them, to establish some contextual correlation between pertinent techniques. Some of the techniques may well be construed as derivatives from the standard Aikido repertory. ‘… As an invaluable aid, I took the liberty to of quoting the words bequeathed by Founder Morihei Uyeshiba, which represent the “heart of techniques” in such a concise and incisive manner.’”

Traditional Aikido, Volume 3, Applied Techniques contains hundreds of high quality photos and over 18 Kuden (secrets of the art bequeathed orally by the Founder Morihei Uyeshiba).
