This updated English version includes a wealth of rare photographs of the authordemonstrating the techniques, as well as a new section on Practical Application. A new Foreword has been written by the author's son, Yasuhisa Shioda, in which he discusses the universality of Aikido and its emphasis on defense over attack, which enables anyone, regardless of age, to practice it.This is one of Aikido's most appealing aspects, and it is the wish of both the author and his son that readers will find The Complete Basic Techniques to be an invaluable study guide and source of inspiration.
