Aikido | 31 Jo Kata Partner Practice

The Aiki Jo developed by Morihei Ueshiba (O'Sensei) is a method of using Japanese staff techniques to teach the principles of Aikido.

The 31 Jo Kata is a staff form that was taught by O-Sensei in Iwama. It was preserved by Saito Sensei and now forms part of of the Iwama Ryu Aikido syllabus.
