In this video Sensei Paul Lowing explains the ten old Iwama Ryu Ken Tai Jo (Sword vs Staff) that are rarely trained.

The Aiki-Ken and Aiki-Jo were developed by Morihei Ueshiba (O'Sensei) as a method of teaching the principles of Aikido through Japanese sword and staff techniques.

These partner practice exercises were developed by Saito Sensei and can be found in his Aikido book Volume 2.
