I would give him more credit if he applied his techniques to a resisting opponent, but sure they look ok on paper
My "favourite" part of those videos was the constant references to severing the spinal column. I mean do his hands have razor sharp blades welded to them?!
Big, sure. Clearly fat. Vile human being? Well, I've heard about some pretty vile stuff, so maybe.Seagal is (literally) a big, fat fraud and a vile human being.
From what I've seen, his technical skill looks solid. And the little bit of actual teaching I've seen on Youtube also looked pretty good.I once had opportunity to meet a man who was Seagal’s teaching partner in Japan. Based on the quality of that man, I have to believe Seagal’s aikido at least was very good in the past. I have no idea if he still maintains his training or skills at a high level today. He has also made some questionable moves in his life, but I guess that isn’t for me to judge, beyond my own opinion. I found the video interesting.
great, thanks for your comment.I would give him more credit if he applied his techniques to a resisting opponent, but sure they look ok on paper
In regards to Sensei Steven Seagal's technique, (the question asked) I thought he showed good, crisp, clean and accurate technique. In other words, he looked great executing the techniques on his willing partners.
how did you guys feel about Seagal Sensei’s technique

Hat's off to Jesse Enkamp for bringing different styles of martial arts to us. Hat's off to Sensei Seagal for showing the world a different style of martial art on screen.
I find it difficult to bash Sensei Seagal...I have to wonder if those that bash him are in some way envious of him. After all, he probably has more money than those of us posting here. He taught Aikido in Japan where the art originated...and he's a gaijin! Who of us here can say we've done that? He was a successful action movie star. There is more than one successful MMA fighter that has thanked Sensei Seagal for his input in their training. And remember this, an accusation is just that, an accusation...just because someone accuses another of something doesn't make it the iron clad truth.
Perhaps if more of us would stick to the task at hand...that being answering the question "how did you guys feel about Seagal Sensei’s technique?" We'd all be a better person. Rather than attacking Steven's character, shaming his body & calling him names, Complete the task; answer the question.
I don’t think he’s actually all that rich. I mean, above the median but not as rich as you might think.In regards to Sensei Steven Seagal's technique, (the question asked) I thought he showed good, crisp, clean and accurate technique.

Not to mention the fact that he had to take breaks in the middle of the recordings. An attacker would just have to move around out of reach for a while to tire him out.I would give him more credit if he applied his techniques to a resisting opponent, but sure they look ok on paper
I respect Jesse Enkamp much more than Steven Seagal. The "training sessions" with Anderson Silva and Lyoto Machida might have been nothing more than publicity opportunities for Steven Seagal. It's a shame, really. He had the world in his hands after his early movies.Well he did a lot of that to himself by talking a ton of poop to lots of other actors & martial artists, including bullying and beating the little, untrained ones. .
He also made a bunch of crazy claims about himself, in the way of McDojoist Supreme Masters, etc.
On top of that, he abandoned his wife & adolescence son in Japan & married Kelly LeBrock after he got famous in "Hard to Kill", then beat the hell out of LeBrock.
Plus a ton of other sexual assault allegations, including that from Jenny McCarthy of MTV who was auditioning for, IIRC, "Under Siege".
Sure, his techs are legit for Aikido. He's also a gigantic guy (who runs funny), so I'm sure he can beat up untrained or lowly trained people. I'm sure he can also teach some good stuff to UFC fighters, etc. I'm just not buying that Anderson Silva nor Lyoto Machida, both didn't know the front kick to the face...taught that way.
