The 11th, 12th, 13th and 14th Jo Suburi are Aikido movements taught by Morihiro Saito Sensei in the Iwama Ryu syllabus. I have put this Jo kata together by joining up these movements, enabling practice on both sides.
The below suburi are used:
11th Jo Suburi - Katate Gedan Gaeshi (one handed strike with low reversal)
12th Jo Suburi - Katate Toma Uchi (one handed strike at a distance)
13th Jo Suburi - Katate Hachi No Ji Gaeshi (one handed figure eight strike)
14th Jo Suburi - Hasso Gaeshi Uchi (Figure eight turn, then strike)
The 11th and 13th suburi can be joined by using the 12th suburi on the opposite side. The second strike in the 13th suburi transitions into the 14th suburi. After this strike the sequence can be repeated on the other side.
The video is shown in slow motion at 50% and at normal speed.
Any questions about this sequence, please ask in the comments below!
