To deepen our understanding of the creation and evolution of Aikido, we must refer to its origins. Its origins date back to ancient traditional Japanese sword handling. Unlike kenjutsu schools, in the Bokken practice in Aikido we attack our opponent with the weapon, and never want the clash of swords. The skills are just like practicing with empty hands. The aggressor energy flows from our opponent and therefore, his sword.

This new DVD of Master Isidro is not intended as a demonstration of skill, it is exclusively a course for beginners. A set of basic techniques performed both empty- handed and with Bokken, so they can easily be learned by those who want to start in the art of sword.
