The "Aikido Christian Tissier" application is a comprehensive resource for enthusiasts of the Japanese martial art of Aikido, which was founded in the 1930s by Morihei Ueshiba. Aikido, known as the "way of harmony," focuses on techniques of immobilization and projection, designed to resolve conflicts harmoniously.
The techniques featured in the app are demonstrated by Christian Tissier Sensei, a globally recognized figure in the Aikido community. As an 8th dan-Shihan, Tissier is renowned for his pure, fluid, effective, and sharp style of Aikido.
The application is structured into multiple modules, including "Aikido Classic" and "Suwari and Hanmi hantachi wasa." These modules showcase traditional Aikido techniques and knee-based techniques, respectively, through meticulously remastered DVD videos. Users can easily navigate to specific techniques using the app's simple yet effective search system.
Another valuable feature is the "Technical Progression" module, which outlines the various techniques according to the progression required for different grade levels, from the 5th to the 1st kyu. This helps practitioners understand and track their learning journey within the art.
In addition to the technical content, the application offers a biography and exclusive photographs of Christian Tissier, providing a deeper insight into his life and contributions to Aikido.
