http://www.shobu.org/DVD.php In the modern practice of Aikido,
the study of the sword has slowly started to disappear from
training. In this new DVD, William Gleason Sensei (6th dan)
demonstrates why the recognition of underlying sword movements
is essential to the understanding of many Aikido techniques. See
how the movements in traditional swordwork and those in Aikido
barehanded techniques are essentially one and the same, and why
the true benefit comes from experiencing the proper handling of
the sword itself. Available at www.shobu.org ~~~ To submit a
