Montreal - 09 and 10 May
It was Gilles Vigneault's incredible phrasing, in the rhythm of "Danse à Saint-Dilon", that made me dream of Quebec, but it is only now that I have the opportunity to visit the land of winter.

Chapter III - The Kajos in Budō #5 - Law n°4 (四法): yonkyo-tenchi nage
It is not the yonkyo immobilisation that is presented here, but the fourth law illustrated by the yonkyo immobilisation, which is why O Sensei is careful not to write immobilisation: 之ョ第四法ト稱ス
Brussels, 21 and 22 March
For a long time, I passed on the knowledge that had been taught to me, but today I pass on what I learned directly from O Sensei, by listening to and respecting what he said.

Chapter III - The Kajos in Budō #4 - Law No. 1 (一法): shiho nage - ikkyo
A rule seems to emerge which is this: for the irimi principle to be manifested, all Aiki techniques must be executed by moving in four square steps. This is the meaning of the ideogram 方 in 四方 (shiho), and shiho nage is simply an application that illustrates this general rule particularly well.
Tsurugi - The Way of the Sacred Sword
"When the opponent's sword rises, you must clearly imagine within yourself the line (direction) that will guide the momentum of your attack – straight or diagonal, according to your choice." Morihei Ueshiba - Budō

Chapter III - The Kajos in Budō #3 - Law No. 3 (三法)
O Sensei does not write sankyo (三教), nor does he write third pin as it has been translated into English. Instead, he writes 之ラ第三法ト稱ス: this is called the Third Law.
