Juji-Uke

This is an instructional video covering the basics of Juji-Uke (Figure-Ten Block, or "X Block"), one of the uke waza (receiving techniques) taught in Goshin-Ryu Aikijutsu. It appears in the fifth set of testing requirements.

Note that this video is intended to provide a visual reference for students to supplement their training. It is not intended to serve as a perfect or definitive representation of the technique - there will always be things that can be done better, and ways that individual students can adapt techniques and movements to suit their physical characteristics and capabilities while keeping true to solid fundamentals. This video provides my interpretation of this technique, reflecting adaptation to work within my own physical limitations. I hope you find this video useful!
