05a Aikido Yuishinkai Techniques

This is a table of the techniques that form the core of the aikido yuishinkai syllabus as assembled by Wiilliams Sensei. The smaller grading syllabus forms a smaller part of this. In addition to the listed techniques are the kata of the Shinkage Ryu and the Daito Ryu

Listed below are some of the techniques that are practised in our dojos. There are many more variants on these techniques. Many techniques can be done in kotai level (static),  juntai level (leading or intermediate) and ryutai level (moving). Some techniques can also be practised  both in omote (appears) and/or ura (hidden). Omote and ura are positions slightly off the centre line of uke’s attack. Nage moves to uke’s front or open side for omote. For the ura position, nage moves to uke’s outside. Both omote and ura can end in irimi (entering) and tenkan (turning).
