25.01.2022 Robin Boyd noticed that someone is using the name Aikido Yuishinkai without Maruyama Sensei’s consent. Sensei asked me to publish his message: It has come to my attention that someone has given himself the Facebook name of "Aikido Yuishinkai Chiangmai" even though he has no connection to Yuishinkai Honbu. It seems that he has sent friend requests to many people affiliated with Yuishinkai and he has used photos taken with me on his page without my consent. His dojo is a fake Yuishinkai dojo. Please be careful not to be fooled.

24.01.2022 Only the ’form’ survives of anything created and then passed on in time, since creativity resides within what is formless and this formlessness cannot survive, having never existed. Therefore, only when the form is being consciously created in this moment is it truly useful and representative of its origin. Otherwise it is hollow and useless, simply a binding force, a limitation. Peter Ralston - The Principles of Effortless Power

21.01.2022 When we stop seeking the validation of others, we can begin to know the true self. When identity is released from action or outcome, failure and success are forgotten. We are what we are. Where we are is where we were meant to be. We are not our traumas, our religions, our dogmas, our race, our nationality or our prejudices. There is no us and other. When self ceases to exist, other than self also ceases. We are not one with the universe, we are the universe. ... This is the founders message, Aikido done his way a vehicle to such realisation. There is nothing outside of yourself that can ever enable you to get better, stronger, richer, quicker, or smarter. Everything is within. Everything exists. Seek nothing outside of yourself. Miyamoto Musashi

18.01.2022 Démonstration inédite de Ueshiba Morihei, période d'avant-guerre

18.01.2022 The study of Aikido is the search for the Devine in all of us. It is not in some of us, but each and every one of us. We are not training to become one with the universe, but to realise that we are the universe. To find the art of peace we must first find this peace inside of ourselves. True Aikido isn’t a technique, because form fails to describe the emptiness from which it is born. To identify the self with the forms of Aikido is the ego creating separation of self and ...other than self. True Aiki is without such separation, as it exists here, now and nowhere......... Happy holidays! Peter

16.01.2022 Here is the demonstration from when our chief instructor, Peter Kelly, was inducted to the Australasian Martial Arts Hall of Fame. Most demonstrations were from Peter with a few special guests.

10.01.2022 Stretching his right hand upward, Morihei Sensei said, Those who practice Aiki should understand the heart of faraway America. I immediately thought to myself..., Please come and throw me, expecting that Morihei Sensei would read my thoughts. Of course, this was merely something I thought in my own mind. However, at that instant, Morihei Sensei, who was looking out the window, turned to me. To my surprise, he started to walk in my direction. He was small, about 150 cm tall, but at that time I felt he was very big. It seemed to me that there was a big wall in back of Morihei Sensei and it was approaching me powerfully. Since I had never taken a fall for Morihei Sensei up until that time, I became very tense. I thought to myself, Oh no! What shall I do? as he approached very close to me. He raised his right hand up as if to execute an iriminage throw and shouted, Eii! I fell backward. Then, turning to me, Morihei Sensei said, That was good! Then, I bowed down with both hands touching the tatami mumbling, Ha-ha. I was really surprised by this. I felt that he read my thoughts at that instant. He had a powerful aura about him and an amazing kiai. Morihei Sensei often appeared in the Hombu Dojo during Seigo Yamaguchi Sensei’s practice. One day, Morihei Sensei started to explain the kotegaeshi technique while holding Yamaguchi Sensei’s right hand with his left hand. Then Morihei Sensei applied a pressure on Yamaguchi Sensei’s right hand with his right hand. Yamaguchi Sensei hesitated an instant and then took the fall by himself. Suddenly, Morihei Sensei, who was smiling until then, shouted at us, Do not practice so that if someone moves a certain way, the other person falls in a certain way! Morihei Sensei’s voice had a metallic sound that could be heard far away. His eyes ashed and I suddenly felt thunder coming down from the fine blue sky. I was really surprised. In this sense, Morihei Sensei was not a normal person. His spirit and kiai were really extraordinary I had never seen such a person up until that time. The atmosphere was completely different when Morihei Sensei was performing techniques compared to the other instructors. When I look at the videos of Morihei Sensei I cannot feel his ki and more than half of the information is lost. It seems that the camera cannot capture the atmosphere or the feeling of the dojo. Actually, there was a certain tension in the air when Morihei Sensei was present... Frankly speaking, when Morihei Ueshiba died, I felt Aikido was finished. It disappeared from the world because the Aikido of Morihei Ueshiba and that of his students are completely different. Tatsuo Kimurafrom Discovering Aiki My 20 Years with Yukiyoshi Sagawa Sensei

08.01.2022 "Today we are looking for "user-friendly" Aikido. Aikido must be convenient, easy, comfortable, enjoyable, reasonable and "treat me like I want to be treated!" ...I suppose this is what everyone wants but we must realize in this case that we are taking the "art" out of Aikido and dulling its keen edge as a martial art. Quite on the contrary, strive, commit, persevere, endure, overcome, be patient, honest, open, humble, seek and achieve - this is what makes Aikido the great art that it is and this puts the final polish on all of us as human beings.

06.01.2022 When we study and train in Aikido, we need to understand as westerners that they way we have learnt to walk stand and move is not conducive to the movements that the body has in Budo. We cannot use a sword the way we use an axe. We cannot walk as an act of falling off balance the recatching that fall, the way it has been described in the west for generations. The path of training is in re - teaching the body to move, to expand to sink and rise, to pull, but never push.... This comes from a deep relationship with weapons, used in a slow controlled determined way, especially on unstable ground, such as the gravel entrance to the shrine at Iwama where traditional Aikido weapons were taught. When we fully integrate these things the body will move according to the principle of opposites, every forward will have a backwards, every up a down, every in an out. Any act of physical endeavour can be made to seem what it is not through athleticism, flexibility and speed. But I put my money on the boxer not the gymnast in a confrontation of a physical nature any day. Extending outside the realm of the body’s balanced and centred limitations in search of technique compromises all the tenants that the art of Aikido is built on.(http://www.aikidoyuishinkaiaustralia.com.au/his-game-his-r/) Never sacrifice principle for technique, even if you loose, you win. When one understands this, that we train to free ourselves from such attachment, then one can get a glimpse of the idea that the founder had for Aikido and the world. Until then, it is just a pretty substitute for aerobics classes done in ancient samurai clothing. Like cos-play with exercise for health and well being. What a great commercial idea, I might run with it.....hang on, perhaps someone already did...........

03.01.2022 The founder of Aikido said many things regarding spirituality. He spoke of peace because he lived through times of extreme violence, and saw the nature of man and the potential it had for great destruction. In his own way he contributed to such destruction before taking up residence in the country and having a long hard look at the state of affairs that surrounded him. It was at this time he decided a change of direction for budo was needed. It was at this time he created Ai...Continue reading
