Video: Bokken Yokomenuchi Practice at Aikido’Ka in Grass Valley

Here’s a brief video of weapons practice. The technique is yokomenuchi with a bokken. Yokomenuchi is a strike which lands anywhere from the temple to the side of the neck.

Aikido is largely based upon sword movement. Our weapons practice helps us understand open-hand aikido much better than just practicing without weapons. Oh, and weapons practice is a ton of fun!
