The Aiki Dojo Podcast - The Roll of the Uke
In Episode 70 of the Aiki Dojo Podcast, we have a discussion about the uke. The uke is the one who “receives” the technique. From the outside looking in, the uke seems like just a throwing dummy. However, the uke’s role is much more than just rolling or setting someone up to look good. Tune in and find out how important the role of the uke is to developing one’s Aikido. Enjoy!
