Just a note to clarify.
Soft power of which I speak is not destructive.
Soft meaning externally leading or evading is WAZA? Not in my Aikido.
Waza is merely technique and is a result of Aiki motion in my Aikido.
As I said, if you experience that kind of Aikido it is different to what you expect.
Once again more differences come to light. Like the stars in the universe, all have their particular shine.
Last night i sat down with a group of budoka and watched a selection of videos of your practice. I'm sure your practice is beneficial to you in some way, but whatever you choose to call your movement- none of the budoka watching could relate with it as a form of budo. I now see why we struggled to communicate. We have no common frame of reference.
