Aikido Moves and Their Uses in Both Practice and Combat

[rene schneider]

In a single second a winner or loser can come out of a combat
situation. A person can always examine the fighting situation in order
to know whether they can become a better fighter by learning and
correcting their mistakes in future. These things may also happen
during a competition and this is why it is recommended that students
familiarize themselves with the different Aikido moves every time that
they can.
One example is considering the Ai hanmi Iriminage where a person grabs
the attacker by the neck and forces him to the ground.
Ai hanmi Kokyuho, is quite similar to the former though the difference
is that the arm is extended a little farther so that maximum effect
can be achieved.
If the attacker has a knife then one recommended move is the Katate
Ryotemochi where the individual can use both their hands to block the
knife and disarm the person before they put the person on the ground.
If the person can get behind the attacker the Ushiro Ryokatatori may
be a better move. If the individual is a tough person then temporarily
applying the Ushiro Kubishime may render the person unconscious for
sometime....
