Do you—or your students—ever get stuck fixating on the contact point in Aikido techniques like ikkyo?

In this training session, we explore how to redirect your focus from the partner’s arm to the center and the space beyond. Using the wakizashi (shoto) as a guiding tool—like lunging a horse—we work on aligning intention and direction through body positioning, not force.

By the end of the class, we revisit a classic version of ikkyo with a transformed approach: leading from the center rather than controlling the limb. This is a must-watch for instructors and experienced students looking to deepen their understanding of connection and kuzushi.
