Practical Aiki-do , Vol 3 by Robert Koga

Summary: Just what the title says
Review: This was one of the videos I purchased when I started teaching some police officers martial arts. I bought it based on the reputation Koga had from his Weaponless Self Defense manuals used by police officers on the west coast of the U.S.

This video is very well done and the information contained in here is very practical and useful for those looking for how to apply jujutsu and aikido concepts to practical self defense situations. Koga is a very good teacher and an excellent speaker and this helps this video to rise above many other Black Belt videos.

Volume 3 involves defenses against various grabs which are common in altercations such as bear hugs and headlocks. Very difficult places to be in and good places to know how to get out of.

I highly recommend this video.
