Video Transcript

"In Aikido, one of my main philosphies like I told you was, avoid, control, and choose. But I always like to assume multiple attackers. If I can deal with one attacker that's one thing, but I want to step it up and deal with multiple attackers. And here's where you really start to see the use of all the arm deflections. Ukenagashi Tenkan, Ukenagashi Irimi, Tegatana Tenkan, Tegatana Irimi. So now as they both come towards me, like this, I can cut one of them out of the way, move, and as they come back, I can deflect, here they come, here they come. You'll see me cutting the arms, Ukenagashi here, Tenkan there, Tegatana here, Tegatana here, Tegatana, Ukenagashi, here. Always moving, always cutting them out of the way. Keep going. Here."
