The Aiki Dojo 2 Minute Technique - 13 different Unorthodox or Advanced Throws

Ito Sensei demonstrates 13 different unorthodox or advanced Aikido nage Waza (投げ技) or throws. There is a probably an infinite number of throws in Aikido, but not all of them are considered kihon-waza (基本技) or “basic techniques.” Many of these throws don’t have traditional names and are usually named for the movement and attack. Furuya Sensei said that each kihon-waza technique has a secret to Aikido hidden inside it, but sometimes doing something different helps to break up the monotony of training and many of these techniques are fun too.
