#137924 - 05/04/05 03:45 AM Any secret techniques taught to only high ranks?
Ninjasaurus Member Registered: 05/04/05 Posts: 73	ok i studied aikido from age 11 to 15 and I am thinking about coming back after a little break since school is calming down again. My sensei taught us all kinds of techniques, and we practiced techniques beyond our ranks since we had gotten our basics down well and they could be used for the higher level techniques. I also saw demonstrations from my sensei and his sensei and they all seemed to use just variations of what we learned or more advanced techniques based off the basics of aikido. I was just wondering if there are any more dangerous and complicated techniques that blackbelts only practice or teach in the presence of other high ranks that I would get to learn if I got higher in rank??

And you only get to be a high grade when you are good at the techniques - therefore - the biggest secret is to be good at the techniques. _________________________ Rupert Atkinson http://discovering-aikido.com

John Stevens) Having said that, the real secret of aikido is in the ukemi. Once you master the ukemi, you will have no problem mastering any technique. There are no secrets. Everything is basic. Everything is simple - when you know how. Just keep practising.

Understand your basics, and you will understand the advanced moves. _________________________ "In case you ever wondered what it's like to be knocked out, it's like waking up from a nightmare only to discover it wasn't a dream." -Forrest Griffin
