This is a rare demonstration held at the Self-Defense Ministry in Tokyo's Akasaka circa 1957. This section is the performance of second Doshu Ueshiba Kisshomaru. The film was part of André Nocquet's private 8 mm collection. Nocquet was the very first foreign live-in student of the founder of Aikido Morihei Ueshiba. He spent 3 years living with the Ueshiba family from 1955 to 1957 and trained daily at the Kobukan Dojo. Read Nocquet's full biography: http://www.guillaumeerard.com/aikido/...
