Modifications for Mastery BOKKEN/TANTO TORI & SANNIN WAZA

In Takeshin Aiki, third black belt requirements contain weapon defenses (specifically, mock-blade disarms) as well as escapes from three attackers. It is important to note that Shihan Annesi does not advocate defending against blade attacks unless one's life is in danger. The techniques shown are traditional requirements modified for today's world that one should use only in dire circumstances. This fascinating video also gives a sampling of freestyle vs. three people.
