Eight hours of grown adults gently yeeting each other into the void.
The Yoshinkan Complete Set of Techniques is regarded as the most complete collection of Aikido techniques on any video set. Techniques are demonstrated by Soke Gozo Shioda and instruction is performed and explained by top Yoshinkan instructors: Tsutomu Chida, Hitoshi Nakano, and Tsuneo Ando. Full English narration.
Practical Effects
Real techniques demonstrated by actual masters, not movie magic.
Production
Surprisingly crisp for a martial arts instructional from the 90s.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Yoshinkan Aikido was developed for the Tokyo Metropolitan Police, making this literally cop training footage.
Gozo Shioda once spent months in solitary training, which explains why he looks mildly disappointed to be filmed at all.
