Introduction
It has been twenty-seven years since the passing of the founder and today
many different styles of aikido exist. The result has been that teachers have
taught freely based on their individual ways of thinking.
Of course, it is a fine thing for instructors to teach based on their own
ideas. However, I am compelled to feel somewhat uncomfortable that such
a situation will result in confusion over the nature of the aikido that the
founder laboriously formulated over a lifetime. The reason is that today in
aikido there are those who do not recognize the validity of weapons tech-
niques employing the aiki ken and aiki jo. Moreover, there are some whose
aikido techniques are very different from those of the founder. There remains
little trace of his genius in this kind of aikido.
As a direct student of the founder and the person in charge of his personal
dojo, I constantly remind myself of my responsibility to faithfully transmit
his teachings as I instruct my students. For this reason, the Takemusu
Aikido technical series being published by Aiki News is very important to
me. I sincerely hope that Volume 3 will be of some help to those who can-
not participate in my seminars or those who are unable to come here toIwama to learn.

Preface
It is with great pride that we publish Volume 3 of Takemusu Aikido by
Morihiro Saito Shihan. The appearance of each volume in this series brings
us one step closer to our goal of cataloguing the vast technical repertoire
bequeathed by Morihei Ueshiba O-Sensei.
This volume covers the final techniques that round out the basic cur-
riculum of Iwama-style aikido, bringing the total techniques presented to
some two hundred. These techniques exemplify the wonderful aikido of
founder Morihei Ueshiba developed during his period of intensive training
in Iwama during and after World War II.
I would especially like to thank Hitohiro Saito Shihan, 6th dan, for his
expert performance of many of the technical sequences presented in this
book. Patricia Hendricks, 5th dan, one of Saito Senseis leading foreign
students also demonstrates several techniques and serves as ukemi in
many of the photo sequences. Thanks also go to Daisuke Takahashi for his
assistance as ukemi. Furthermore, we owe a debt of gratitude to Miles Kes-
sler who carefully reviewed the technical explanations and made a number
of suggestions to improve the clarity and accuracy of the text.Finally, I would like to thank Japanese editor Ikuko Kimura, my co-trans-
lator, as well as Hisako Ishida and Yurie Chiba for their tireless efforts in
preparing the final manuscript.

Once someone asked the question, What kind of train-
ing will make me strong in aikido. In the founders fifth
note on training in Budo, p.8 he writes: Daily training
starts with tai no henko. You should gradually increase the
intensity of your practice and use your body in a natural
way. The founder explained the importance of each and
every one of the numerous techniques of aikido. I believe
that by studying the many documents on the founder
questions such as this one will be naturally resolved.
On the subject of koshinage, the founder used to make
everyone laugh by making comments like: It is especiallyeasy to throw using koshinage. I never get tired no matter
how many times I throw. I dont get tired even if I continue
throwing from morning to night! Those who experience
difficulty in executing koshinage should by all means refer
back to the founders words.
Among the techniques I explain in this book are su-
wariwaza kokyuho and morotedori kokyuho. Kokyuho
techniques are essential to aikido. Aikido without kokyuho
is like sumo without strength. Basically, there are cleardistinctions in the kokyuho movements and it is neces-
sary to master these differences completely. In your aikido
training you should first and foremost study these two
groups of kokyuho techniques.

Initiate the technique by extending your right
hand towards your partners face.
Step forward with your left foot while execut-
ing an atemi to your partners side with your left
hand.
Strike down your partners right hand with
your right tegatana.
Grab her right hand from below with your left
hand and step further to the rear of your partner
with your left foot. Hold down your partners head
firmly with your right hand while raising her right
hand upwards with your left hand.
Step forward with your left foot and throw
your partner.
There are two types of shomenuchi tech-
niques. In the first of the two, you cause yourpartner to attack by initiating the movement. In
the other type, you receive the attack initiated by
your partner. In the basic technique, be sure to
initiate the movement.
The hand change shown in photo should be
executed in the same manner as shomenuchi san-
kyo henka (4). See Takemusu Aikido, Volume 1.
Be sure not to hold down your partners neck,
but rather the head, when throwing.

partners left hand. You cannot enter without this
atemi. In the position shown in photo 3, be sure
to blend your movement with your partners in
order to prevent her from releasing her right hand
which is holding your hand.

Initiate the movement by extending your
right hand into your partners face while stepping
forward with your left foot to execute an atemi to
her side.
Cut down your partners right tegatana with
your right hand and grab it from below in the
same manner as the sankyo grip. Execute an
atemi to her face with your right hand.
O-Sensei said: Step forward and position
your right foot between your partners feet.
Extend your left arm diagonally upward with
the feeling of pointing at the top corner of the
wall and bring your partners stomach onto
the small of your back in such a way that your
two bodies form a cross.
In the position shown in photo , you should
first cut down your partners right hand and then
grab it using the sankyo grip.
There is another koshinage technique from
right hanmi where you grab your partners right
inside wrist from the block with your left hand
from below and step forward placing your right
foot between your partners feet to throw her.

Initiate the movement by extending your

ner receives your hand with her right hand.
Cut down your partners right hand with your
left hand. From ai hanmi, grab the inside of your
partners wrist with your right hand and the base
of her thumb with your left hand. Step through
with your left foot in the manner of shihonage.
Grab the inside of your partners wrist with
your right hand while holding the base of her
thumb with your left hand.
Extend your right arm diagonally upward with
the feeling of pointing at the top corner of the wall
and bring your partner sideways onto the small of
your back so that your two bodies form a cross.
There are several koshinage techniques that
are executed from the same positions assumed
when performing shihonage from katadori, yoko-
menuchi, shomenuchi, and katatedori attacks.
These techniques require you to enter as in
shihonage and, therefore, can be considered as
applied techniques (oyowaza) of shihonage.
When executing koshinage techniques from
the shihonage position, be sure that your part-
ners stomach does not lie on your back. Instead,
raise your partner sideways onto your back asshown in photo .

When your partner steps forward with her
right foot to execute a yokomenuchi strike, step
to the right to assume right hanmi and cut down
your partners right hand with your left hand
while striking the side of her face with your right
hand.
From ai hanmi, grab the inside of your part-
ners wrist with your right hand while holding the
base of her thumb with your left hand.
Step forward with your left foot into a posi-
tion in front of and between your partners feet.
Extend your right arm diagonally upward with
the feeling of pointing at the top corner of the wall
and bring your partner sideways onto the small
of your back in such a way that your two bodies
form a cross.
The difference between the execution of
shihonage and koshinage is importnant. In
shihonage you step forward with your left foot,
pivot 180 degrees, and move your body away
from your partner. In koshinage, you step for-
ward, plant your hips in front of your partner,
then load him onto your back.
