AIKIDO: SELF-DEFENSE & WEAPONS
With more than 44 years of Aikido history, Georgios Koliopoulos Sensei is one of the ancestors of Aikido. His way has been starting 1974 at the Chicago Ki- Aikido Society under Master Koichi Tohei (Shin-Shin-Tōitsu Aikidō). His teacher was Fumio Toyoda Shihan, with whom he developed a very close relationship for over 25 years. Since 1994 he is a member of the Aikikai and works closely with the Hombu Dojo.
"Keep it simple!", "Cut the crap!" And "You only have to do this!" express his aikido. The path is the unfussy essential of "working relaxed, centered and precisely flowing in timing and extension."
This weekend seminar is focused on 2 things: the very extensive weapons program of the Hellenic Aikido Aikikai (Buki-Waza with Jo, Tanto and Bokken) and Aikido for effective self-defense (which in the 70s in Chicago, well Sensei will tell You ...). And there is one other important thing: the breaks. Use the time to be in company with nice people, sofa surfing or a walk through the forests, the river Mindel or the lakes around the dojo. We‘re looking forward to have him and You here.
The training of Japanese martial arts Aikido is very complex and leads to simplicity. It's not just about self-defense, it encourages physical agility, a relaxed, upright posture, precise suppleness, timing, inner calmness, observation, attention, mindfulness, impartiality and presence. Budo also means to develop a strong character and maintenance of virtues: righteousness, sincerity, courage, respect, compassion, honorable behavior and loyalty. It teaches us how to position, center and that attacks are just disturbance of natural peace.
Aikido is active control of the moment - You can start at any age. > read more
