The heart of Aikido - Hikitsuchi Michio 10th Dan (full documentary)

In The heart of Aikido Sensei Hikitsuchi Michio talks about his journey with O-Sensei Morihei Ueshiba and the transformation that Aikido had. He also demonstrates some of the techniques and explains some of the principles of Aikido. When he was fourteen years old, he met Morihei Ueshiba for the first time. At that time there was an age requirement for studying budo with Ueshiba, but they made an exception for Hikitsuchi. Hikitsuchi recounts a midnight, lights-out training with Ueshiba, in which he cut off the tip of Ueshiba’s bokken. The piece flew off, and he searched throughout the dojo for it. Eventually, Ueshiba pulled it out of the folds of his kimono, praising him highly for his skill. Months later, Ueshiba gave Hikitsuchi a scroll entitled “Bojutsu Masakatsu Agatsu” - True Victory is Self-Victory. The scroll was extensively illustrated by a famous artist, and contained Ueshiba's written explanations of techniques. Meik Skoss, who has viewed the scroll, wrote, “One of the phrases on the scroll is very interesting, ‘each of these pictures is the seed for a hundred techniques; study them well.’” According to Clint George, one of Hikitsuchi’s former students who trained in Shingu for 15 years, “Shingu bojutsu” consisted of these levels: Ikkyo — a fundamental solo form Nikyo — a solo form that explored circular movement Sankyo — a solo form that explored three-dimensional, spherical movement Yonkyo — Jiyuwaza — free, un-choreographed movement Michio Hikitsuchi received his 10th dan in 1969, three months before Ueshiba's death. Hikitsuchi taught as chief instructor of Kumano Juku Dojo in Shingu, Japan until his death in 2004.
