    Default Question for Tomiki Ryu Aikidoka

    Has anyone conducted a study of the techniques commonly employed in Tomiki Ryu randori competition? I am interested in identifying the techniques most commonly applied in randori (toshu randori and/or tanto randori). I am also interested in identifying the techniques which are considered the tokui waza (favorite techniques) of superior competitors, as well as which techniques are the most effective in scoring. Is there a website containing this information or a print media source for the information? As an alternative, can anyone recommend a source for video of high skill level (national or international) Tomiki Ryu randori competitions? I would be most appreciative of any help in locating this information to assist in research. Regards, JED.

    Default Tomiki Aikido

    John,

    You can try contacting Stanley Pranin. Years ago he had a VHS video on Tomiki Aikido. It feature Kenji Tomiki doing the Randori no Kata and several forms of traing including some competative footage. I found it to be very good.

    I *think* there are 17 basic waza that are legal in randori...try Aikido and the Competitive edge by (I think) Shishida?

    Best,
    Ron (excellent book for shodokan stylists)
