In this video from the 1970's Fort Osage video, Taika handles another two hand push, this time he crosses under and the feed (at speed) creates a roll motion out of his opponent.

Each technique in the original book was numbered and had Oyata's handwritten initial text for the book.

Studio is up and operational.

I will be planning some more video productions to answer questions people want more detailed, visual instruction on. The last year has been a little slow in that regard as I was finishing up the Kyūsho & Atemi book as well as working on the second Tuite book, plus all the details of moving across the U.S. Wagons East! Now that the new home and studio are established, I want to get back to producing more of the videos.

If you have requests, let me know. I keep a running file on video requests by friends on my phone and am always looking for ideas.

Thanks
