“A surprise is called a surprise because its a surprise”-aikidoflow 2019

Keep up the great work. Don't let the rain make you quit, just make it a time to regroup or dance in the rain.

I sure do like this guy. Great videos.

I really enjoy watching your videos. The techniques are great but i really enjoy watching, very relaxing. Thanks guys. Keep it up 👍 much love from Central California USA

Killer presentation, Jason (and Andre). I like the way you teach initial head protection. The key is to quickly shake the stun after a surprise hit, then move in "with combinations". Go right to the key targets...eyes, joints, throat...since you were jumped...don't play games. Just finish the job quickly....then "get outta there".

Yep you mentioned reaction time years ago about striking in first 5 to 10 seconds defines the fight. And its so true. I've used it few times with junkies and muggers who wanted my wallet and work's a treat block strike lock and break the arm has saved my butt many times and I'm only 5"4 so it's a must as once I get a hold of a arm or leg I'm not letting go until I control them

Four days ago a group of men relaxing in a park in Reading were attacked by a man with a knife, 3 killed (RIP) and 3 injured: There really are threats that can strike anywhere any time. Situational awareness needs learning everybody!

He protecc, he attac, and surprising as hecc

nice.........................those joint strikes will come in handy.......

Good advice guys. Another technique is to move. When I was surprise attacked with a punch to the jaw, I moved out of the way of the second attack and the third and the fourth. His fifth triggered my surprise attack. Front kick to solar plexus, immediately followed with elbow and wrist lock and foot sweep, driving him hard into the concrete street gutter. I dislocated his elbow and broke his jaw when he hit the gutter edge. He woke up in handcuffs. He was 24, I was 49. Experience counts.

Great video. Keep it up, guys.

Thank you! Awesome videos. I'm white belt beginner(and 41y old),so this really helps me a lot...great work guys,best regards!

I train karate and these techniques are great.

I love your videos. Things taught are simple to learn ... And simple to use. Thanks from South Carolina, USA

Great video! Aikidoflow... the best! Thank you!

Excellent video theme. Very practical and very useful. Excellent instruction. Thank you!

Best Aikido video yet!

Hello there Jason. Great presentation, interesting topic. There r two types of attacks, Premeditated and Spontaneous. Premeditated assaults r dun with intent, when you’re off guard. Spontaneous assaults occur over an argument, disagreement or drunk. AikidoFlow, keeping it real. Thank u.

I personally enjoyed this video. I'm 64 but very heathy .thank God. I'm a Vet, from the Vietnam Era and I need to get back to training myself. I subscribed,hope to see more of these self defense video 's ,that I was train for many yrs ago.

Thanks, you and Andre are great. Thanks for the fine explanation I love it.

This is good stuff. So right about joints

Thanks for the Video! I feel there are good and true advices. May I allowed to add a trick as well. When you get attacked from nowhere, you will be shaken and get some desorientated. This is something you need to train. Trick: do a training with a partner and a "cushion". spinn yourself several times around with head low. Then try to hit the "cushion"

Great video as always. Looking forward to the master tutorials !

sir .iam from India at. Kerala.you are good teacher we helpful this teachings . thanks alot

THANK YOU VERY MUCH MATE!!! CHEERS 👏🏻♥️👼🏻

Awesome 👏 stuff 👍👍👍 Thank You

Great explanation Andre!

Good practical advice with no bullsh*t. Great video.

Hi, just seeing this in late 2020. Great stuff about the joints.

8:48. Run! Love it 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️❤️

Great videos!

Nicely Done!

Palm strikes are a viable alternative and the many of these vids I have watched none of these so called "masters" use them. Sure my philosophy was for so long, "Elbow first, arm out b/c it extends". But understanding the diametric of CQC it is something that should be taught.

Yes , +hanks a lot I am learning by just eatching your video

lol I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS M8!!!!!!!!!! thnx a lot

Thank you SIR!

Great work! In the dojo I used to train, we has more the tea ceremony part of Aikido and nothing with Atemi :-( Think I need to move to London :-)

Thank you

Good one Thanks

was teaching this very move to the beginners class this very evening.

If it ain't rainin', we ain't trainin'.

Great info for us, here in San Francisco! Any advice for women?

You need to make sure you have your hands out of your pockets to make sure you can defend yourself! It is good to be aware of the contents of your pockets for a knife,keys,pens and anything pointy. With something pointy you can strike vital body parts,the face,ears and throat.

💯

I enjoy watching your Aikioflow videos. However, what I like about them are the DEMONSTRATIONS. and not so much the talking, and pontificating. Action speaks louder than words mate. Thank you.

Maybe some techniques against really big oponent? I am 5'5 height only?

So what does a senior do to protect himself?

I’ve been thinking of talking to our students maybe have a small class on anti bullying and self defense is there something I should say and talk about or anything I should not say or talk about

remain calm relaxed & in control beware of your social surroundings observation / observe everything whats around switched on is the key here element of surprise expect the unexpected.._.

But if the attacker is much taller than the locks are much harder if not, not possible. Than the hits to the neck is maybe better?

Can You Do A Hip Throw Defense.

I usually use the violence to win a fight

Add more combat , for the streets

What if the surprise is good

I may be a fool, but I thought that I wanted to send you a picture, nevertheless it turned out awesome , but I don't seem to have the technology to send anything, where I wanted for it to go. I also assume that I got kicked out, and also that that, could have been a video that was made in 2014 or something, and smelled like something that I had got ripped off, out from underneath me, before, etc. Wish I could send a picture etc.

Train your neck well until it’s thick strong for headbutts and can check around 360 view also you can handle punches in the head better

strat jakkkn ov

nice

No one gonna throw a right punch though they grapple you too it always with the right punch with most of these vids n other channels too n other states mainly uses a gun/weapon ?

Someone attacked a few joints before making this video.

😂😂😂

I am wachting in Turkey Not turkey It is Turkiye hahahahahahahagaagga

aikijitsu ...love your channel..

@aikidoflow, Are you looking to get a career out of these basic techniques dude?, There is tons of this already out :P

Lot's of jelly headed talking, little demonstration

Use real profanity.

This clown should have thought ahead of time about what he was going to say.

This is soo bad!
