Finally, after several years of dimished formats, the All Japan Demonstration was back into full swing, all the more reason to celebrate since this year also marked the 60th edition of this major event for the Aikido world.
For more context on how this constitutes a significant milestone, you can read a short history of the All Japan Demonstration that we recently published on this website.
As always, I made sure to attend with my gear in order to shoot as many demonstrations as possible for you to enjoy. This year, I was asked by the Kanagawa Prefecture Aikdio Federation give a demonstration as part of the instructors demonstrations and I was able to count on the support of my friends Mihaly Dobroka, my colleague from Yokohama AikiDojo and Aurelien Yvart, who came all the way from France for the occasion.

Aurelien also helped me film a great number of the demonstrations and I will publish the videos progressively in the following playlist.
