Dynamic Aikido BOOK by Gozo ShiodaAncient theory, modern practice: Dynamic Aikido brings together the whole spectrum of theoretical and applied Aikido. Through it, one can become perfectly attuned to his opponent, can sense his intentions and turn his movements to one's own advantage. Comprehensive and fully illustrated, Dynamic Aikido presents the basic postures and stances, fundamental techniques and applications: how to cope with a frontal attack, how to avoid an attack from the rear, how to sense and thwart the pick pocket. An essential companion for every beginner, a vital referance for students of all levels. # Paperback: 160 pages # Publisher: Fitzhenry & Whiteside (Jan 11 1989) # Language: English # ISBN: 0870113011 REVIEW This is a great reference book for all Aikidoka, especially for those who practice Aikido for self defence needs. This book provides a basic look at the Yoshinkan style of Aikido, the style taught to the Tokyo police for self defence. It includes detailed pictures and explanations of all the basic techniques and includes an area at the end that illustrates the effectiveness of these Aikido techniques in typical scenarios that require self defence. As an instructor, it provided me with a great basis from which to develop other Aikido techniques into more practical self defense.
