Wow! What a cool video on Robert Mustard Sensei (BC). Click on the link and scroll to the bottom of the page and watch the video on Robert Mustard doing an aikido demonstration. Truly spectacular and unbelievable if you've never taken aikido before!

I haven't checked out these videos yet, but if they work this is a great site. 13 clips of O-Sensei!

It includes pictures of O-Sensei working with jo and bokken, which should finally disprove the no weapons theory.
