I'd like to know what cool aikido openers you use.

Post them, along with how to do em, in the comments below.

Hello there’s this thread that you can have a look through

do you have discord? Me and some friends of mine have a discord server where we look towards sharing openers, hints and others stuffs about many mods (aikido included).

If you have discord and feel interested, make sure to pm me your discord and I'll invite you right away >:O

note: we are not great but I think we are at least decent, a good starting point to go xD

Easy kick

Lower both arms

i construct openers based on my knowledge of the other bloke so i work from principles rather than specifics.
I use an asymetrical opener that will
widen my base. this is mostly glute/leg work. try relaxing a knee and extending a glute.
try to obtain as close of a grab to the center line with one hand.
my non grabby hand works to cut of angles of attack from openers the other bloke has done.
