techniques, movements and tactics derived from the movements of Aikido Kenjutsu and tactics ... O Sensei has adapted these movements and tactics is that at the Tai Jutsu Buki Waza, in accordance with the principles that he himself has developed ...
Today, some schools of Aikido practice little or no study at all Buki waza (weapons techniques). Some schools have even banned weapons from circulation in the name of non-violence, thereby departing from the roots. Others, in contrast, study the technical school of Kendo, Iaido, Jodo ... These arts, not just in my opinion, even if valid, are not completely suited to applications in the movements and principles of Tai Jutsu Aikido (grappling techniques) indeed, some going in opposite directions.
This does not mean they should not be given, but must be considered martial arts, or sports from martial arts, aikido that have little to do.
NO KEN KAMAE
The basic position for the practice of ' Aikiken is Ken No Kamae, in particular the form Chudan . The criteria that govern this position are the basis of ' Hanmi .
When we talk about Ken no Kamae and then we talk of Hanmi.
I Kamae, in ' Aikiken , three, and three of the first three Kamae Suburi: 1 Suburban Chudan no Kamae, 2nd Suburi Jodan-no Kamae and 3 ° suburban Gedan no Kamae.
In the other arts of the sword the guard positions only many more, but we know that O Sensei, took only what, functionally, it served to highlight the principle of Aikido in their actions. And most of all, he has selected and "clean " all movements that potentially could remove the practice of these principles.
So, today we find ourselves practicing aikido techniques without tripping, no mowing, ... sweeps without all those mechanisms that make effective techniques and reduce the efficiency dell'aikidoka. O Sensei has the clean and tell us: " get out all the armor and practiced with the minimum of your maximum potential for exploitation." One senses that he tried not techniques arm ourselves, but let us become " technology" . Aikido strips us completely and compels us to fight our own inner nature.
These three positions, strategically, were those who espoused more fighting in the bush. Each of these positions controlled the other. Steps from one location to another, the tactics of attack or defense
If the first contestant took the position Chudan, Jodan passed to the other, and the first answered by Gedan.
It will deepen further on these mechanisms, for the moment let's enjoy this movie made from "the seven Samura i" Akira Kurosawa, and observe that these steps are intentionally well highlighted by the wonderful director, expert Samurai traditions of her country (see critical film at the end of this article).
E 'superfluous to point out that in the warrior tradition, position control, spirit and emotion are crucial in situations of danger .
Ken no Kamae and stability
Be that as people in everyday life, and as Aikido, studying and learning the martial characteristics, our balance can be compromise in three points.

The three images are related to the three positions of the Katori Shinto Ryu.
Although Buki Waza of O Sensei, developed specifically for Aikido, differs from many schools of Kenjutsu, some points remain common.

Hanmi position, that aikido has maintained, in other martial arts has been replaced for reasons of competition (where the attacks become more important defense) by a more frontal position., And where , since there is no danger of death, you can take daring attitudes.
These three positions, strategically, were those who espoused more fighting in the bush. Each of these positions controlled the other. Steps from one location to another, the tactics of attack or defense

Ken no Kamae and stability
Be that as people in everyday life, and as Aikido, studying and learning the martial characteristics, our balance can be compromise in three points.
1. Physical balance
The control point is the center of gravity of the human body, positioned a few inches below the navel
3. Mental balance, mental
The checkpoint is our mind, our control center
The control point is the center of gravity of the human body, positioned a few inches below the navel
2. Emotional balance
The checkpoint is the heart-lung, organs that express the anxieties materially
3. Mental balance, mental
The checkpoint is our mind, our control center
The disruption of one of these three points has an impact on other points. Control, stability and continuous alignment of these three acts decisively on our state and consequently on our choices and actions.
It takes more than a year to sit properly.
If the three points are well aligned then the senses, thoughts, energy, flow blocks and of course without the clarity and insight will be total.
or senses in meditation
In Aikido we find this formula by three foundations that O Sensei path:
physical equilibrium - Stability - Strength - Earth - Square
Emotional Balance - Running - Fluid - Water - Circle
psychic equilibrium - Anal - Air - Fire - Triangle
In conjunction with the Eastern philosophical tradition, the structure of the pagoda is deeply entrenched. The square is represented by the legs, belly-land, the border is exactly 3 cm below the navel. The circle includes belly-heart zone, the border is the heart. The triangle area includes the heart-mind, the boundary is the highest point.
Ken no Kamae and three sources
particular position of O Sensei Ken no Kamae
position Ken no Kamae aligns the mind and the heart of the basin:
Basin
Stability , physical balance, effective technique ...
The stable base for the technical implementation, balance and physical imbalance
Heart
Emotions, feelings ...
The heart makes the final decision, balance and emotional imbalance
Mind
conceptualization, formulation, concentration ...
The basic tactical and strategic action and defense, balance and imbalance in the psyche.
If the position is correct, the belly is stable, the breath (kokyu) is normalized and the heart is calm, does not agitate the mind becomes clear and focused but ki flows.
If the position is correct, the belly is unstable, the breath becomes anxious your heart beats strong and stirs the mind (stress), the Ki is blocked.
The stability of the body may be broken causing a serious imbalance of mind. Acting on the mind
Aikido In ethics the above brings us to the following statement
body running the blow
the mind directs the blow
heart decide between life and death

Morihiro Saito Sensei Ken no Kamae
Ken no Kamae and the strategy of control
sword pointed at the eyes of the opponent controls the mind: the alignment (c) directs the stability of your body in line straight to the mind of the opponent which will not be able to find a way to penetrate the guard.
This point is critical to capture the Ki of the aggressor, and it is at this point that Tori can open your channel to watch the attack of Uke.
KAMAE is not just a physical location, a guard for the fight, but a state of physical, psychological, emotional connection between mind, body and spirit. For this reason the position, in a real fight, it was of paramount importance.
The challenger understands the difference and not declare a tie, but Kyuzo, more aware, says that the victory is his. Inevitably the answer then we try in earnest.

Note on Duel of "The Seven Samurai," Akira Kurosawa
has used the advice of the Master of Kendo Yoshio Sugino regarding technical and tactical parts of the film, even if we do not know when it has influenced the plot. The duel over represented a facsimile of a historical episode, though, for obvious reasons, not reconstructed exactly, the main character was the famous master swordsman Yagyu Jubei Mitsutoshi (1607-1650), the Yagyu ryu school. At the time, like today, wooden swords were used for daily training (bokuto or bokken) without the use of guards, the shots had come into contact with a strong proficiency in such a way as not to bring injury. Of course, the incidents were equally frequent, sometimes fatal, and the complaints were of use. Over time the use of shinai, still used in Kendo matches, will bring the hit safely without risk of injury to the opponent.
The masterless samurai (ronin ) were constantly on the road and carry only the bare essentials. In the film sequence the two contenders in the absence of bokken, obtained by cutting the makeshift bamboo swords. The challenger then took an aggressive stance (offensive mind, body pending) warning high (jodan) while the other moves to guard waki Gama (Gedan), with a neutral attitude (mind and body hold).
rattled the challenger attacks to break through the inertia, so impetuous (body and mind in attack), Kyuzo (main character) comes back with perfect timing and his bokken touches the opponent before it touches briefly in turn.
The challenger understands the difference and not declare a tie, but Kyuzo, more aware, says that the victory is his. Inevitably the answer then we try in earnest.
Repeat with real swords follows the pattern of the first assault, and this time the result is fatal for the challenger. Kurosawa with a device that loves very scenic, having exacerbated the tension and the pace of the action, past the crucial moment, shows in slow motion the fall of the victim. Probably a ploy more realistic than they seem: at times of maximum attention, as what the audience should have a duel to the death, the assurance maximize their sensitivity and time seem to expand, the moments become interminable.
