This tittl is very good.

This is a great DVD set Highly recommended it.

Incredible overview of training at the Snake Pit Japan Gym! I love this disc. The techniques covered deliver on the title but of course Miyatos instruction is the value here!

Books ARE wonderful for being at your fingertips, but alas they are only have 2 dimensional static displays of technique. DVD Videos are in a higher class, when it comes to watching the techniques presented in a dynamic and active format. Various angles are shown; both at Full Speed and also Slow Motion. Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu: Ikkajo Ura Techniques DVD 2 is also a great second video to add to your martial arts instructional DVD collection of Daito-Ryu Aikijujutsu. Many techniques are demonstrated at full speed and then at slo-mo. This DVD looks great on my 4K UHD TV, and the skill set is absolutely peerless in it's execution. AND as an added bonus, there are ENGLISH SUBTITLES to follow along with as the techniques are done from multiple angles and directions. I highly recommend this video as a "Second Course" into the wild and woolly world of Daito-Ryu Aikijujutsu! You won't be let down, and you might even be enthralled with the skills presented. There were no glitches, or audio drag, and the video was crystal clear. 5 Stars!

This is an excellent and RARE bi-lingual hardcover manual featuring the skill set of Katsuyuki Kondo. It covers many practical techniques of Daito-Ryu Aikijujutsu. I am very pleased to have this manual, and it is splendidly laid out and executed. Having a manual such as this in the English language is GREAT. There are a dearth of such manuals such as this, as a majority of them are in Japanese. I cannot recommend this excellent tome enough. If you want to know some of the inner workings of this splendid martial arts style, you cannot go wrong by investing in this manual, while they are still available. 235 pages of informative and useful knowledge, displaying many well executed Hiden Mokoroku Ikkajo techniques in the flow of 10 Tachiai, 10 Idori, 5 Ushirodori, and 5 Hanza Handachi methods and 31 variations of them. It is, in fact encyclopedic, and a great work of the author and the translator.

This fine manual shows a wide variety of joint locks, and throws, as well as defensive maneuvers against one who is armed with a Tanto. I also like the way in which it presented the articulation of the wrist joint, the metacarpals, the phlanges, the range of motion that the wrist is capable of. Additionally it details the pronation and supination of the forearm as it relates to the wrist. The pictures accompanying the text are clear and concise, and a breeze to follow along with. Roughly 65 techniques are covered in all; from standing, seated, facing, rear facing, bear hugs, shoulder grabs, 1 against 2 opponents, and much much more. 3 pages had minor, neatly done, yellow highlighting, but that did not detract from the overall value in terms of price, nor in the valuable knowledge contained within. Great addition to my martial arts library. 5 stars in my opinion.

Throws, Throws and more Throws. This powerhouse of a book is packed with tons of neat, interesting and effective ways to toss your attacker! Over your hip, Over your shoulder, locking their wrist, and dropping them to the ground. It also shows throws that work by centrifugal and centripetal force. It is filled with easy to follow photographs, with defenses from sitting, standing, kneeling positions; front and rear attacks, straight and cross grabs to the wrists, and throat, single and double handed grabs to the throat from the front and back, single and double handed grabs to the elbows from Front and Rear, as well as the shoulders. This book can be the best book of its kind on the topic, in any martial arts practitioner's collection. Highly recommended, as a seminal work on the subject. It is in Japanese, but if you understand Kanji, you can get the gist of the techniques in the index, and on their respective pages. I am grateful this book was available for me to add to my collection of the best of Daito-Ryu Aikijujutsu! Oss!

The dvds are excellent and very detailed.

Excellent

A must have and extremely useful guide/reference to improve your Kodokan Judo throwing techniques.

Extremely comfortable and very flexible. I couldn’t be happier.

Great dvd for people looking to advance their capoeira game

Excellent book. Breaks down the technical and spiritual components very smoothly. A nice dedication to this wonderful Japanese tradition.

A great introduction to the world of Kunoichis and some of the powerhouse women who have been training for decades. This training focuses around the theme of the Ken. There is some self defense. Some advice for women. Mostly Soke is demonstrating katas and variations useful for everyone.
