Progressive Aikido Volume 1: An Illustrated Handbook

Progressive Aikido Volume 1: An Illustrated Handbook

Following the same pictorial format as its sister book, â€˜Essential Aikidoâ€™, â€˜Progressive Aikidoâ€™ presents a wide range of techniques and training methods to extend the Aikido practitionerâ€™s repertoire.
The techniques are shown as sequences of photographs of key positions, where necessary each one annotated to improve the readerâ€™s understanding of toriâ€™s actions.

The book is in eight parts:
Part 1, extends the Aikido repertoire by describing Tachi waza (techniques with both training partners standing) appropriate to most of the attack forms commonly practised in Aikido dojos. Part 2 covers a range of Hanmi handachi waza (tori kneeling and uke standing) and Part 3 covers Suwari waza (both partners kneeling).
In Part 4, Kaeshi waza, or counter techniques, is presented in three forms, namely single counter techniques, multiple technique sequences, and freeform, continuous counter techniques. They move progressively from relatively simple to advanced practice forms.
Kanren waza, described in Part 5, examines possible ways to adapt technique in response to ukeâ€™s actions, typically when uke attempts to prevent a technique from completing.
In Part 6, Renzoku waza, we describe technique combinations that address certain training situations, namely multiple attack practice and recovery from faulty technique execution.
Part 7 illustrates a number of Ninin dori techniques, in which two attackers hold tori.
Finally, in Part 8, a training scheme for Jiyu waza training is presented, including suggestions for techniques appropriate to dealing with multiple attack Jiyu waza.
