At the February work shop Coach Freedman gave an in depth lecture on the concepts of Aiki and Ju. He feels that these concepts are frequently misunderstood. He believes that if we are going to study martial arts we need to understand what these terms mean and how they apply. Coach with his usual humor and wit managed to get us to understand what these principles were and how they were applied to arts like Aikido and Jujutsu.
After the lecture he physically demonstrated how these principles apply. All the participants then joined him on the mat to practice. The workshop was enjoyed by all that attended. Michael Moore (not the director) who runs Michael Moore’s Martial Arts in Beautiful Westport, MA. commented “Mr Freedman is a great teacher I loved how he shares laughs with his students. We do the same all the time, keep it fun and enjoyable, not like a military camp.”
Here is the video of the lecture. Watch and enjoy.
