Bonus Film: 1973 All-Japan Aikido DemonstrationIn addition, part two includes a special film feature at the conclusion of the Friendship Demonstration.
We have located and remasterd an old 8mm film of the 1973 All-Japan Aikido Demonstration taken 30 years ago.
Here is the lineup of famous names appearing in the film: Doshu Kisshomaru Ueshiba, Shoji Nishio, Hiroshi Tada, Kisaburo Osawa, Sadateru Arikawa, Mitsugi Saotome, Seigo Yamaguchi, and Koichi Tohei.
This is a rare opportunity to see many aikido greats—some already departed—in their primes.
Two bonus films of Morihiro Saito: the first film is a compilation of scenes taken by Aikido Journal Editor Stanley Pranin of Morihiro Saito in the summer of 1969 at the Aikikai Hombu Dojo.
In this never-before-seen film, you will experience first-hand the great teaching skills of Saito Sensei at his peak.
It is not well-known, but Saito Sensei taught at the Hombu Dojo for nearly ten years.
The second film captures the performance of Saito Sensei at the 1978 All-Japan Aikido Demonstration.
His demonstration consisted entirely of iriminage techniques.
Saito Sensei’s performance here showcases the power and precision of Iwama Aikido.
