Harnessing Kokyu Ho: Mindful Entry and Transformative Techniques

Kokyu ho, a practice often found at the end of Aikido classes, holds a wealth of learning opportunities. At our Aikido Summer Seminar in Los Angeles, we delved into the essence of kokyu ho by emphasizing mindful entry and transformational techniques.

During the seminar, we explored the interplay between technique and mentality. Despite the appearance of pushing a partner, the primary focus was on entering spaces strategically, aligning with the principle of harmonizing with the opponent's energy. This approach enhances the quality of kokyu ho, transforming it into an experience that embodies the essence of Aikido.

In this video, we reveal the transformative power of kokyu ho through mindful entry and intention. Join us in exploring techniques that go beyond physical actions, providing valuable insights to elevate your Aikido practice.
