Any of you guys use leg locks in your training? Any of you actually include them in syllabus? Marcus Encel sensei demonstrates and 'alternative Aikido pin" using a version of the figure-4 leg lock. https://lnkd.in/gYa-wZDC .

Based upon a conversation that was had here recently. Q: How many of you have CONFLICT RESOLUTION / DE-ESCALATION Skills acually IN YOUR SYLLABUS? If so, how is this manifested? Please comment as we already include this at our dojo but as you know we are keen to continually improve what we're doing so any contributions welcome. https://lnkd.in/g-_cW-Qy .
