Obata-Kaiso demonstrates many of the essential and practical footwork patterns for Shinkendo kihon waza (basic technique), tachiuchi (sparring), and Aikido. Additional patterns in suriashi (gliding) and sashiashi (double-step) format are: Kagigata-Jugigata-Masugata, Tatebishi-Yokobishi-Sotobishi, Grid outlines accompany many patterns to assist the learner. Performing these patterns with a partner is an additional aid to mastering them. Yoko Obata assists Obata-Kaiso in demonstrating in sotai (partner) format.
