Master Isidro presents us with a complete project on Aikido training with the traditional Japanese saber, or "Tachi", a practice in which, as with empty hands, attack and defense fuse into a single concept. We will study the fundamental movements extracted from Iaido; the Tachi-Dori work that teaches use how to defend against attacks with a saber, as well as disarming the adversary; Aiki-Ken, opposite to the previous (Tori attacks with Bokken and Uke tries to control the wooden saber); Kihon-Waza (all those empty hand techniques executed with saber); and finally, Randori work in Kumi - Tachi.

 
This is an excellent video for understanding the true origin and the effectiveness of Aikido techniques.
