Toshishiro Obata and Aiki Jutsu - 03/07/07 10:32 PM
For anyone who's interested here's a link discussing Toshishiro Obata and his creation of Aikibujutsu. Obata was the uchi deshi for Gozo Shioda for 8 years, and well respected in Yoshinkan before breaking away and forming his own style. As I've mentioned in previous posts Obata was my sensei's biggest influence. Even though many of you have done a pretty good job convincing me that I don't practice true aiki jutsu, you still might find the information regarding Obata's philosophy, curriculumn, etc, kind of interesting.
