Budovideos.com - Aikido to BJJ DVD with Derek Nakagawa & Marcio Feitosa

Aikido is a highly evolved form of Japanese jiu-jutsu with smooth flowing techniques and an emphasis on blending rather than fighting. Brazilian Jiu-jitsu (BJJ) is also a highly evolved form of Japanese jiu-jutsu however with an emphasis on grappling. In this instructional DVD, you will learn how these arts fit together from two of the top instructors in their respective arts. For the aikido side we have Derek Nakagawa - 4th degree black belt and a 30+ year veteran of the martial arts. On the BJJ side, we have Marcio Feitosa, 3rd degree black belt, legendary competitor, and master instructor of the largest jiu-jitsu school in the world - Gracie Barra.

Starting from traditional aikido attacks, Derek shows the typical aikido defense. Next we allow the attacker to resist or counter the technique which sets up the jiu-jitsu portion of the technique. Watch and learn as Marcio & Derek together show you how to smoothly transition from aikido stand up to jiu-jitsu groundwork in this instructional DVD.

didnt see any real blend of bjj and aikido. the "blend" is nothing more then when you go to the ground use bjj, when standing use aikido. it's like watching two seperate dvds one on bjj and one on aikido. the info here is good. but i just see any real blending of the 2. if you want a bjj instructional and an aikido intrsuctional video get it. if your looking to see the 2 blended skip it.
