Official Kokikai Test Requirements

Sixth to First Kyu Requirement

Kokikai Sixth Kyu

Purpose of Aikido

Everyone has some internal power. We can call this KI-power. Or potential power, or anything at all. But this power can be developed by the practice of mind-body coordination. Learn to apply this power to self-defence and daily life.

Ki

Coordination of mind and body in human being is the strongest state. This is the state of radiating energy.

Ki Test:

We understand that the mind rules (controls) the body. We test the body in order to “see” the mind. Then we can see if the mind and body are coordinated or not.

Technique:

Practice not only to throw people. Understand why we can throw and how we can throw. You must understand the logical idea. We understand that strong is correct but, more importantly, correct is strong.
