Aikido: The Art of Peace

Here’s a great Aikido demo performed by Pat Hendricks and Tom Gambell, both Iwama trained stylists.  Note the quick, rounded ukemi.  Both are now 6th degree black belts.  This demonstration was held in 1984 at Shihan Frank Doran’s Redwood City dojo, immediately after my teacher, Julio Toribio, performed his second degree black belt demonstration. Enjoy the flow.
