This is the crux: IP guys pull out discriptions of yin and yang and aiki from disparate sources and say that they are they same thing that ye are doing, but you won't state where you learned it and...
Yes, you've also stated that Dan doesn't teach inner level teachings of DR such as asagao and aiki age/sage (among others), so that's fine.
I chose my words very carefully Chris. If anyone is really...
BTW, your assertions about yin and yang as used in DR are off the mark. It is an oral teaching and you are not aware of its meaning in DR.Even referring to akido, Your teaching of yin and yang as...
Leaving the personal defamation aside, are you stating that you are teaching solo training drills learned from a branch of daito ryu? If so, who taught you, and to what level did you learn? As you...
I have no interest in "discussing aiki" (relating to DR) on the internet. Pretty much the only point I have made relating to this is that, if you really want to know, join a DR group and train. YOU...
Who are these people? What are their experience in the art, and what is YOUR experience in the art that qualifies you to confidently state what is or is not "DR" aiki? These are fairly simple...
That's unfortunate Nathan, but given the direction this forum has taken recently, I suppose it was only a matter of time. As a general comment, Nathan has a lot of experience in DR along with other...
So Dan doesn't clam to teach asagao as demonstrated in Daito Ryu? Or aiki as demonstrated in daito ryu? It's his own take on the terminology?
Terms such as "asagao" have specific meanings when referred to in the context of Daito ryu too. Outside of that context, anyone is free to use the term: It's only a flower after all.

Thank you for your replies. The Toda Ryu is especially interesting as it seems to still be practiced in the area. This is in relation to some research I am doing in relation to shakuhachi ryu...
Does anyone have any information on this subject? I did a search and found a link to ono ha itto ryu. Does anyone know anything else?
Thank you!
You could well be right. It might well just seem similar, or it may be mistaken on my part. There was a clip on youtube of a Tatsumi ryu embu taken in Hiroshima, I think, including Liam Keeley, that...
Nathan,
I have no evidence, but I have long been struck by the seemingly similar body usage on clips I have seen of tatsumi ryu and daito ryu. It is nothing overt, rather how exponents carry...
Well, looking at that clip, it's obvious (to me anyway) that you are comparing roses to lilies, but I've said my piece, and I don't want to keep arguing about this. In closing, I would strongly...
You can presume if comments and videos illustrating said comments are mistaken. As I have said, if you want to comment on videos according to your understanding of "IP" away you go. However, aiki no...
I agree with Chris. IMO, you are making huge assumptions about what Horikawa and his students are doing when comparing them with completely different traditions. For example, your comments on the IP...
My personal take is that this mindfulness type training is a poor substitute for authentic meditative training. Here's a link that discusses the phenomenon:

Just some comments from my own personal experience:
Aikido and Daito Ryu are utterly different in methodology, although they superficially share some of the same techniques. I didn't realise how...
Thanks for that information, David.
I've heard mention that ono ha itto ryu also contains ju-jutsu and Sasamori Sensei has demonstrated this at seminars. Has anyone experienced/seen this?
With respect, Daito Ryu is a physical art. People with severe physical limitations can practice it profitably. You have access to at least three direct lineage schools in your area, which is more...
All are safe up here in Hokkaido, as far as I can tell. I'm not aware of any DR instructors in the Tohoku region, though I'm sure there are some. I believe it was an importatnt area in DR history. I...
Do you have any experience with Takumakai Daito Ryu? The Saigo-ha seems to have taken their Aiki no jutsu techniques directly from the Takumakai.
