HistóriaDonovan Waite Shihan leads Aikido of El Paso seminar demos: Kotegaeshi and Irimi Nage
Seminar clips from Aikido of El Paso feature Donovan Waite Shihan guiding paired work on core techniques. The set includes Ai Hanmi Katate Dori Kotegaeshi sequences labeled Exercise 2 and Exercise 3 [1][3], alongside a Yokomenuchi Irimi Nage entry and finish [2].The Kotegaeshi material follows the capture from ai-hanmi wrist grip through off-balance, pivot and the turning release into the throw, with clear attention to hand position and footwork [1][3]. The Irimi Nage piece emphasizes a direct entering line off yokomenuchi and stable posture through the conclusion of the technique [2].For students across kyu and dan ranks, these recordings offer straightforward reference points to review grips, steps and control while keeping safe ukemi front and center [1][2][3].
